Answer :
Final answer:
There are 9 five-minute segments in 45 minutes. Multiplying 9 by 5 gives the total number of minutes, which is 45. This kind of question involves basic multiplication to find the total time in minutes. So, the correct answer is option 2) 45 minutes.
Explanation:
To find the total number of minutes in 9 five-minute segments, we multiply the number of segments by the length of each segment in minutes:
9 segments × 5 minutes/segment = 45 minutes
Therefore, there are 9 five-minute segments in 45 minutes. Now let's review and add the following units of time as examples:
- 15 minutes + 60 minutes = 75 minutes
- 10 minutes + 20 minutes = 30 minutes
- 15 seconds + 45 seconds = 60 seconds or 1 minute
In the context of other time conversions:
- 35 minutes - 10 minutes = 25 minutes
- 60 minutes - 10 minutes = 50 minutes
- 1 hour 75 minutes - 20 minutes = 1 hour 55 minutes
- 2 hour 10 minutes - 20 minutes = 1 hour 50 minutes
- 1 hour 5 seconds - 5 minutes = 55 minutes and 5 seconds (noting that you cannot subtract seconds from minutes directly)
