Question

It takes Kayla 12 minutes to walk from her house to her grandparents' house. She walks to and from their house twice a week. About how many minutes each week does Kayla spend walking between the two houses?

Answer 1

Answer: 48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Kayla house to her grandmother's house=12 minutes

Her grandmother's house to Kayla house=12 minutes.

Total minutes per day is 12 min+12mins= 24 minutes.

Kayla spends 24 minutes to walk the two houses in one day.

If she walks to and from two days in a week

24 minutes×2=48minutes

Therefore, Kayla spends 48 minutes walking between the two houses twice in a week.

Answer 2

12 plus 12 (walk to and from her grandparents) times 2 (two times a week she goes) equals 48. So, she spends 48 minutes walking between the two houses.
