Answer 1

Answer:

Holly has watched  48 minutes of the movie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Holly has watched movie=39% of a movie

Total time of movie=122 minutes

To find the time in minutes  of movie that Holly has watched

Let x be the number of minutes of  movie  that Holly has watched

According to question

x= 39% of 122

$x=\frac{39}{100} \times 122$

Because 39 percent =$\frac{39}{100}$

$x=\frac{4758}{100}$

$x=47.58$

$x=48$ approximately

Hence, the best estimate is 48 minutes of the movie that Holly has watched.

Answer : 48 minutes.
