Yael worked out at a gym for 2 hours. Her workout consisted of stretching for 21 minutes,jogging for 45 minutes, and lifting weights for the remaining amount of time. What percentage of Yael’s workout was spent lifting weights?
55%
45%
66%
54%
To find the percentage of time Yael spent lifting weights, we need to first find out how many minutes she spent lifting weights.
21 minutes (stretching) + 45 minutes (jogging) = 66 minutes
So, Yael spent 2 hours (or 120 minutes) working out, and she spent 66 minutes on stretching and jogging. Therefore, she spent 54 minutes lifting weights.
To find the percentage, we divide the time spent lifting weights (54 minutes) by the total workout time (120 minutes) and then multiply by 100.
(54 minutes / 120 minutes) x 100 = 45%
Therefore, Yael spent 45% of her workout time lifting weights.
The correct answer is 45%.
