Question

Kerri attends a 40-minute yoga class 5 times per week. How much time does she spend in the yoga class over a 7-week period?

Answer 1

1,400 minutes.

Explanation:

Kerri attends a 40-minute yoga class 5 times per week.

Multiply 40 by 5 to get the total minutes for one week:

`40*5=200`

So, Kerri attends yoga classes for 200 minutes total for one week.

With that in mind:

`\text {Total Minutes for a Week} * \text {Weeks} =\\\rightarrow 200 * 7=\\\boxed {1400}`

Kerri should attend yoga classes for a 1,400 minute total in a seven week span.

Answer 2

1,400 minutes

Explanation:

First, let’s find how much time she spends per week.

She attends a class that is 40 minutes long and she does this 5 times a week.

Therefore, we can multiply 5 and 40 to find the total time per week.

5*40

200

She spends 200 minutes per week and she does this over a 7 week period.

We can multiply 200 and 7

200*7

1,400

She spends 1,400 minutes in yoga class over a 7 week period.
