Chris went to the sports centre with his partner on Saturday morning. Chris spent 120 minutes at the centre.
He played badminton for 50 minutes.
He used the swimming pool for 1/6 of the 120 minutes.
He used the gym for 20% of the 120 minutes.
He then spent the rest of the 120 minutes in the cafe having a smoothie.
Work out the total time, in minutes, that Chris spent in the cafe.
Answer:
We can start by working out what 1/6 of 120 mins is: 120 x 1/6 = 20 mins
Then 20% of 120 mins: 120 x 0.2 = 24 mins
We can take all these values away from 120 to see the time left she spent in the cafe:
120 – 50 – 20 – 24 = 26 mins
