Chris had 30 minutes to do a three-problem quiz. He spent 11 3/4 minutes on question A and 4 1/2 minutes on question B. How much time did he have left for question C?

Respuesta :

Answer:Chris spent 13 3/4 minutes on question C

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's write an equation:

We know 30 is the total and we are trying to find a part, and 11 3/4 is a part and 4 and 1/2 is a part

So:

30=11 3/4 + 4 1/2 + x

30=16 1/4 + x

- 16 on both sides(to find what x equals to)

13 2/4=x

X=13 3/4
