In this question, you already download 0.5 GB of the total 2.2GB data you need which mean you only need to download 1.7GB left. If the speed of download is 0.01 GB per minute, then the time needed would be:
(2.2GB- 1.7GB) / (00.1GB/minute)= 1.5GB/ (0.01GB/minute)= 150 minute = 2.5 hours

Two hours would not be sufficient to download the data as you need 2.5 hours
