We can start by using ratios to solve this problem.
If one-fourth of the documentary is 2 episodes (since 8 divided by 4 is 2), then each episode is 1/2 of the one-fourth share.
So, 1/2 of the one-fourth share is equal to 1/8 of the documentary.
Therefore, if 70 minutes have been watched, this is 1/8 of the total minutes in the documentary.
We can set up a proportion:
1/8 = 70/x
where x is the total number of minutes in the documentary.
Cross-multiplying, we get:
8*70 = x
560 = x
Therefore, there are 560 minutes in the entire documentary.
