Answer:

15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

every minute is 60 seconds

this means that you multiply 60 by 1/4 or divide 60 by 4

when you divide 60 by 4 you get 15

this is how

you can put 4 into 6 one time

so the first digit is 1

the left over is 2

then you drop down the 2

you get 20

4 can go into 20 give times

this means that the answer is 15

Answer:

15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

because if

1 minute - 45 seconds = 15 seconds.

45 seconds + 15 seconds = 1 minute or 60 seconds.

1/4 is to 15 seconds.

1/2 is to 30 seconds.

3/4 is to 45 seconds.

1 minutes is to 60 seconds.

Therefore , the correct answer is 15 seconds.
