Answer 1

Sara studies longer by 15 minutes.

Explanation:

Let's calculate how long Sebastian studies for. From 3:15 - 4:15, there is 1 hour and from 4:15 to 4:45, there are 30 minutes so Sebastian studies for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Now, let's calculate how long Sara studies for. From 4:30 - 5:30, there is 1 hour, from 5:30 - 6:00, there are 30 minutes and from 6:00 - 6:15, there are 15 minutes so Sara studies for 1 hour 45 minutes. This means that Sara studies longer by 45 - 30 = 15 minutes.
