Answer: 60 - 10
Explanation:
There are 5 commercial breaks with each of the breaks lasting 2 minutes.
Commercial breaks in total therefore last:
= 5 * 2
= 10 minutes.
The program is a 60 minute program so to find the amount of time the program lasts without the commercials, the expression is:
= 60 - 10
It lasts 50 minutes without commercials.
