Question

Emily is encouraged to read more than 4 hours each week. It takes her 45 minutes to finish her first book. She divides the remainder of the time equally amongst the other six days. What is the minimum number of minutes she should read each day? Write and solve an inequality.

Answer 1

Answer:

32 mins 50 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hours to read weekly $\geq$ 4

she has read for 45 minutes, so she has 4 hrs - 45 minutes = 3 hrs 15 minutes left

Dividing the time equally = 195 mins / 6

minimum number of minutes to read $\geq$ 32 minutes 50 seconds
