Concept

The total length of the three songs can be calculated by adding all the three-time together.


\begin{gathered} 1\text{ song = 3}(1)/(2) \\ 2\text{ song = 2}(57)/(60) \\ 3\text{ song = 4}(3)/(4) \end{gathered}

Therefore, total length of time in minutes is calculated below.


\text{Total length of time = 3}(1)/(2)\text{ + 2}(57)/(60)\text{ + 4}(3)/(4)

First, find the sum of all whole numbers then the sum of all fractions


\begin{gathered} =\text{ (3+2+4)(}(1)/(2)+(57)/(60)+(3)/(4)) \\ =\text{ 9(}\frac{30\text{ +57+45}}{60}\} \\ =9((132)/(60)) \\ =\text{ 11}(12)/(60) \\ =\text{ 11}(1)/(5) \end{gathered}

Final answer


\text{Length of the thr}ee\text{ songs altogether = 11}(1)/(5)\text{ minutes}
