Does salt affect how long an ice cube melts?

I am just talking about normal salt, not special salt (if that exists).

Answer:

Ice cubes with salt melt faster. When you add salt, it dissolves in the water of the ice cube. The freezing temperature of salt water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit lower than that of fresh water.
