The correct answer, in minutes, is:  " 16 \frac{1}{3} minutes ".
_____

[<u>Note</u>:  This is the same value as " 16 minutes and 20 seconds."].
_____

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 980 sec to "minutes".

Note the exact conversion:
  60 sec = 1 minute.

 
So: Given the values in this question:
  60 sec / 1 minute = "x  minutes/ 980 sec" ;

that is:

 " \frac{980 sec}{1}  *\frac{1 min}{60 sec}  " ;
The units: "sec" ["seconds"] cancel out to: " 1 " ;

 since: " [sec / sec = 1 ] ;   and we can simplify and rewrite:

   " \frac{980 min}{60} = \frac{980}{60} min."

 →  Now, cancel out the last numerical value of "zero"
                  (in both the numerator and the denominator);  that is: to simplify the expression further—by dividing each side by "10" ;

              to get:  " \frac{98}{6} min."

Then: divide the numerator by the denominator:
        "[ 98 ÷ 6 = 16 \frac{1}{3} minutes ] ; — which is our answer.

<u>Note</u>: "1/3" of:  "1 minute"  = (1/3)*(60 seconds) = 20 seconds.

So;  "16 1/3" minutes = 16 minutes and 20 seconds".

_____
The correct answer, in minutes, is:  " 16
\frac{1}{3} minutes ".
  [<u>Note</u>:  This is the same value as " 16 minutes and 20 seconds."].
