Pauline rides his bike to school in 6 2/5 minutes. If it takes Dylan 4 1/2 times as long to get to school, how long would it take Dylan to get to school

It should take Dylan 28.8 minutes to get to school. Change the number into decimals and multiply them. You end up with 28.8.
I’m not 100% if this is correct but I hope this helps in some way!

6 and 2/5 times 4 and 1/2 = 28.8 or 28 and 4/5 minutes
