We can set up an equation to solve this problem, but first we need to write out what we know.
$20 overall
$0.24 every minute
$13.52 remaining on the card
Now that we know our information, we can set it up in an equation.
20 - 0.24x = 13.52
The 20 represents $20 overall when she first got the phone card.
We are then subtracting $20 from how must it costs a minute (which is 24 cents). The 'x' indicates the number we are trying to find (how many minutes her call lasted). Lastly, 13.52 is the result of everything, since she has $13.52 remaining on the card.
We can now solve the equation:
20 - 0.24x = 13.52
-0.24x = 13.52 - 20 /// subtract 20 from each side
-0.24x = -6.48 /// simplify
x = 27 /// divide each side by -0.24
Our solution is: x = 27.

An easier way to solve this problem would be to first, subtract the total amount of money she had on the card when she first got it, and then the remaining total she ended up with.
$20 - $13.52 = $6.48
So, she spent a total of $6.48 on long distance calls, but since we are looking for how many minutes, we need to divide the total she spent and how much it costs per minute.
6.48 ÷ 24 = 27
We receive the same amount of minutes spent just like we did the last way we solved.

Salma spent 27 minutes on the phone.
So let's break this question down.
You need a bit of both, right? Well we need to calculate how many multiple choices we can do whilst having true/false questions, and not going over or under on points.
So, let's pick a random number, 5. So let's do 8x5, that equals 40.

Ok so now we have our number, 5 multiple choice questions.
The true/false questions should be easy, just do 3x20 and you get 60.
ANSWER: 5
8b - 32
Hope it’s right
Best luck with your studying
