Question

Mandi learned that each 10% of charge on her cell phone gave her an hour and twenty minutes of use. While playing a game today on her phone, she noticed the charge drop from 81% to 57% how long did mandi play the game?

Answer 1

3hrs 12 mins

Explanation:

For every 10% charge she gets 1hr 20mins (or 80 mins)

Charge drop = (81% - 57%) = 24%

Since 10% gives 80 mins;

24% gives (24/10) x 80 mins = 192 mins

since 1hr = 60 mins

192 mins = 192/60 = 3hrs 12 mins
