You are rock climbing and descending a cliff at a rate of 9 feet per minute. The cliff is about 360 feet high. How long until you are at a height of 234 feet?

How long until you are halfway down the cliff?

In 14 minutes your at 234 feet.
In 20 minutes your at 180, which is halfway down the mountain.
