Question

the mendozas videotaped a bulldogs game to watch later. the game lasted 93minutes. the family watched the tape until it became obvious that the bulldogs would lose. if the mendozas watched 2/3 of the tape did they watch for more or less than an hour?

ummmh, do you think you could find 2/3 of 93 minutes and find out if that is less than 60?

Answer 1

Certainly! To find out if 2/3 of 93 minutes is less than 60 minutes, we can calculate it as follows:

First, we need to find 2/3 of 93 minutes. To do that, we multiply 93 by 2 and then divide the result by 3:

2/3 * 93 = (2 * 93) / 3 = 186 / 3 = 62

So, 2/3 of 93 minutes is 62 minutes.

Now, we can compare 62 minutes to 60 minutes to see if it is less or more:

62 minutes > 60 minutes

Therefore, the Mendozas watched for more than an hour, as 2/3 of 93 minutes is greater than 60 minutes.
