Answer 1

The passage states that Sally and Maria stopped running to rest once they got to the bleachers. After a 10 minute rest, they started running again. Therefore, at the time of their run when Sally fell for a minute, it would have been 10 minutes after they started running again, which is at 15 minutes.

The correct answer is C) at 15 minutes.
