Let \( x \) be the total time in minutes it will take to complete the video game.

Since you have completed \( \frac{1}{5} \) of the game in 23 minutes, we can set up the equation:

\[
\frac{1}{5}x = 23
\]

To solve for \( x \), multiply both sides by 5:

\[
x = 23 \times 5
\]

Calculating that:

\[
x = 115
\]

So, it will take **115 minutes** to complete the game.
