Question

It typically takes Mr. Dunn 20 minutes to get to school, but it took him 40% longer today. How long did it take Mr. Dunn to get to school today?

EXPLAIN THE ANSWER

Answer 1

Answer:

28 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

40 percent is 0.4 and 100 percent is 1. Since you have the full 100% of 20 plus the increase of 40% you have to multiply by 20 by 1.4

1.4*20 = 28
