1 answer

To find the number of minutes Emma spent studying, we need to multiply Sarah's study time by 1 1/2.
First, let's convert Sarah's study time to a mixed number. We have 35 1/2 minutes.
Next, let's multiply Sarah's study time by 1 1/2.
35 1/2 * 1 1/2 = 53 3/4 minutes.
Therefore, Emma spent 53 3/4 minutes studying.
