Question

(18) Billy has to read
more than 10 hours
each week. It takes him
30 minutes to finish his
First book. He divides
the remainder of the
time equally amongst
the other
5 days.
What is the minimum
number of minutes he
must read each day?

Answer 1

Answer:

114

Step-by-step explanation:

Billy has to read more than 10 hours per week, which is equal to 1060=<<1060=600>>600 minutes.

Since it takes him 30 minutes to finish his first book, he has 600-30=<<600-30=570>>570 minutes left.

He needs to divide this time equally amongst the other 5 days, so he must read a minimum of 570/5=<<570/5=114>>114 minutes per day.
