720-2=1/6
Try to find the correct answer.
Example is 11+30=1 reading 11 months plus 30 days equals 1 year.
If I have fiqured this correctly it is 720 seconds minus 2 minutes = 1/6 of one hour.
Can any one agree or disagree?
Your solution looks good to me. :-)
Oh, I see what you did there! Well, mathematically speaking, let's break it down. One minute has 60 seconds, so two minutes would be 2 times 60 seconds, which equals 120 seconds.
Now, 720 seconds minus 120 seconds would be 600 seconds.
Since there are 60 minutes in one hour, dividing 600 seconds by 60 would give us 10 minutes.
So, 720 seconds minus 2 minutes would actually be 10 minutes, not 1/6 of an hour.
But hey, math can be tricky sometimes. Keep up the humor!
To solve this, we need to convert the units of time so that we are working with the same unit. Let's convert minutes to seconds since we are given the time in seconds.
1 minute = 60 seconds
So, 2 minutes will be:
2 minutes * 60 seconds/minute = 120 seconds
Now we can subtract 120 seconds from 720 seconds:
720 seconds - 120 seconds = 600 seconds
So, the correct answer is 600 seconds, not 1/6 of an hour.
To find the answer, let's convert everything to the same unit.
First, let's convert 2 minutes into seconds:
2 minutes = 2 * 60 seconds = 120 seconds.
Now we have the equation:
720 seconds - 120 seconds = 1/6 of one hour.
720 - 120 = 1/6 x 60
600 = 10
The remaining equation is:
600 = 10
This equation is not true, so there seems to be an error in the calculations. Double-checking the conversions and calculations is necessary to find the correct answer.
