A movie, including the previews, is 2 hours and 40
minutes long. If the previews last 20 minutes, what
fraction of the total time is the actual movie?

Respuesta :

Answer:

7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length of the actual movie time and the length of the total movie time, the actual movie is 7/8 of the total movie time.

What fraction of the total time is the actual movie?

Given the data in the question;

Total time of the movie is 2 hours and 40 minutes = 160 minutes

Preview time is 20 minutes

Now time of the actual movie will be;

Total time of the movie - Preview time

2 hours and 40 minutes - 20 minutes

160 minutes - 20 minutes

Time of the actual movie is 140 minutes

Now we get the fraction

Time of the actual movie / Total time of the movie

= 140 minutes / 160 minutes

= 14/16

= 7/8

Therefore, given the length of the actual movie time and the length of the total movie time, the actual movie is 7/8 of the total movie time.
