Question

Adam wanted to play his video games. His mother told him that he needed to finish his homework, clean out the dishwasher, and clean his room before playing video games. He completed his homework in 48 minutes. He took 25 minutes to clean out the dishwasher. He took 75 minutes to clean his room. How much time did Adam have to spend doing homework and cleaning before playing video games?

Answer 1

Answer:

It took him 2 hours and 28 minutes to do his tasks.

Step-by-step explanation:

All we need to do is add all of the minutes it took him to complete all of his tasks, so:

75 + 48 + 25 = 148

There are 60 minutes in one hour.

60*2 = 120

148 - 120 = 28
