Question

Doug worked out for 256 minutes.

Doug has an enemy named Cathy

Cathy worked out a total of 4 hours and 15 minutes.

Who worked out more? What was the difference in minutes?

Answer 1

a.) Doug worked more. b.)The difference is one minute.

Explanation:

CAN BE DONE DIFFERENTLY

Cathy has 4 & 15 minutes, since each hour is 60 minutes we can multiply 60 by 4.

60

x4

240

Now adding the 15 it'll be 255.

DOUG WORKED MORE.

DIFFERENCE IS 1 MINUTE.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Cathy worked 4 hours.

4 hours = 4 * 60 = 240 minutes

She worked an additional 15 minutes which brings her total up to 255.

Doug worked 1 minute longer than Cathy.
