Question

A typical 60-minute TV program

has about 16 minutes of
commercials. How many minutes
of commercials are shown in a 90
minute TV program?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Well 90 is only 30 more than 60 which is half of sixty.

so divide 60 by 2 to get 30 and divide 16 by 2 and get 8.

then add 30 to 60 to get 90 and add 8 to 16 to get 24.

ans. 24 minutes of commercials
