D) 80

Help with this please

Answer 1

Answer:

C) 60

Step-by-step explanation:

For computing the difference between the time taken in minutes by Noel and Tyra first we have to compute individually which are as follows

For Noel, the time taken required

$= Time\ required \times number\ of\ days$

$= 90\ minutes \times 6\ days$

= 540 minutes

For Tyra, the time taken required

$= Time\ required \times number\ of\ days$

$= 60\ minutes \times 8\ days$

= 480 minutes

So the difference is

= 540 minutes - 480 minutes

= 60 minutes

Hence, the third option is correct
