Answer:

Total time allotted was:

50 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total time allotted be x minutes.

Mia spent 30 minutes answering the math questions on the exam. This was 3/5 of the total amount of time allotted for this section of the exam.

The first step was correct i.e.

\dfrac{3}{5}x=30

Now, on multiplying both sides by 5/3, we get

\dfrac{5}{3}\times \dfrac{3}{5}\times x=30\times \dfrac{5}{3}

   x=50

Hence, the second step was incorrect and the total time allotted was:

50 minutes
