Answer 1

Camille spent 22 minutes and 30 seconds opening presents.

Since Camille had a very fun birthday party with lots of friends and family attending, and the party lasted for 3 hours, and she and her friends played games for 3/8 of the time, ate pizza and cake for 50% of the time , and spent the remainder of the time opening presents, to determine the amount of time spent opening presents the following calculation must be performed, posing the following linear equation:

Total time - time spent on other activities = time spent opening presents

• 3 - (3 x 3/8) - (3 x 0.5) = X
• 3 - 1.125 - 1.5 = X
• 3 - 2.625 = X
• 0.375 = X

• 1 = 60
• 0.375 = X
• 0.375 x 60 = X
• 22.5 = X

Therefore, Camille spent 22 minutes and 30 seconds opening presents.
