Austin washed 4 cars in 1 hour 40 minutes. How long will it takes to wash a car?

1 answer

To solve this problem, we need to convert 1 hour 40 minutes into minutes.

1 hour is equal to 60 minutes, so we have:

1 hour 40 minutes = 60 minutes + 40 minutes = 100 minutes

Now, we divide the total time taken (100 minutes) by the number of cars washed (4) to find the time taken to wash a car:

100 minutes / 4 cars = 25 minutes

Therefore, it will take Austin 25 minutes to wash a car.
