Question

Gabe has already spent 2 minutes on the phone, and he expects to spend 1 more minute with every phone call he routes. In all, how many phone calls does Gabe have to route to spend a total of 37 minutes on the phone?

Answer 1

Answer:

he would make 12 phone calls

Step-by-step explanation

so he talks three minutes each time he is on the phone so divide 37 by 3 to get 12.33 with the .33 repeated but you have to round down to 12 because you have to have a whole number for the calls but even if the number was 12.79 you cant round up to 13 because the number has to be over 13
