Yup, Bridgett is right.
thanks for the both of you!:)
To find out at what time Sheila started writing songs for her CD, we need to follow the series of events and calculate the total time it took.
1. Sheila spent 90 minutes writing songs for her next album.
2. Sheila took a 15-minute break.
3. Sheila then went to the studio and worked for 1 1/3 hours.
4. After that, she worked out for 1/2 hour at the gym.
Let's break down the time calculation step by step:
90 minutes + 15 minutes = 105 minutes
1 1/3 hours = 1 hour + 1/3 hour = 1 hour + 20 minutes = 80 minutes
1/2 hour = 30 minutes
Therefore, the total time taken by Sheila for all of these activities is:
105 minutes + 80 minutes + 30 minutes = 215 minutes
Now, we know that Sheila left the gym at 2:20 PM. We need to subtract the total time (215 minutes) from this time to find out when she started writing songs:
2:20 PM - 215 minutes = 11:45 AM
So, Sheila started writing songs for her CD at 11:45 AM.
