Question:

Because of a problem in the program, the timer in a video player did not begin counting until the video had been playing for several seconds. The player began counting at 0 seconds, even though the video had already played 190 frames. The video plays 25 frames per second.

How many frames had the video already played when the time was equal to
3(2)/(5)

Answer:

275 frames

Explanation:

Given


Start\ time = 0s


Rate =25frames/sec


Played = 190\ frames

Required

Number of frames played when
time = 3(2)/(5)

First, calculate the time taken to play 190 frames


Time = (Frames)/(Rate)


Time = (190)/(25)


Time = 7(3)/(5)

So, when the time is at:
3(2)/(5)

The total time is:


Total = 7(3)/(5) + 3(2)/(5) -0


Total =(38)/(5) + (17)/(5)

Take LCM


Total =(38+17)/(5)


Total =(55)/(5)


Total =11s

The number of frames is then calculated as:


Frames = Rate * Time


Frames = 25 * 11


Frames = 275
