Answer 1

80 minutes

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

to solve this we need to do a subtraction

time left= total movie -minutes he watched

then

replace

`\begin{gathered} \text{time left=149 minutes -72 minutes} \\ \text{time left=}77\text{ minutes} \end{gathered}`

so, the answer is 77 minutes

Step 2

What is the estimated number of minutes left if both numbers are rounded to the tens place?

hence, we need to round the numbers and then do the subtraction

`\begin{gathered} 149\rightarrow rounded\rightarrow150 \\ 72\text{ rounded}\rightarrow70 \end{gathered}`

so

`\begin{gathered} \text{time left=}150-70 \\ \text{time left=}80 \end{gathered}`

so, the answer is 80

I hope this helps you
