Question

The table shows how Levon spends his time at the gym. Over the course of a week, he wants to spend 600 minutes at the gym. How much more time will he spend lifting weights than on the treadmill? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

600 minutes at the gym divided by a total of 60 minutes equals 10. 10 times 25 minutes on the treadmill equals 250 minutes. 10 times 35 minutes lifting weights equals 350 minutes. He’s going to spend 100 more minutes lifting weights than on the treadmill per week.
