Question

15 minutes and 6 seconds + 19 seconds + 31 seconds in minutes and secods

Answer 1

To add the times together, let's first convert everything into seconds.

1. **Convert 15 minutes and 6 seconds to seconds:**
- \(15 \text{ minutes} = 15 \times 60 = 900 \text{ seconds}\)
- Total: \(900 + 6 = 906 \text{ seconds}\)

2. **Add the other times in seconds:**
- \(906 \text{ seconds} + 19 \text{ seconds} + 31 \text{ seconds} = 906 + 19 + 31 = 956 \text{ seconds}\)

3. **Convert 956 seconds back to minutes and seconds:**
- Minutes: \( \left\lfloor \frac{956}{60} \right\rfloor = 15 \text{ minutes}\)
- Remaining seconds: \(956 - (15 \times 60) = 956 - 900 = 56 \text{ seconds}\)

So, the total time is **15 minutes and 56 seconds**.
