Question

1.5 minutes
2.ModifyingAbove 6 with bar minutes
4 minutes
15 minutes

Answer 1

To find out how much time Irina has for each question, we first need to convert the 3 hours she has into minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in each hour:

\[ 3 \text{ hours} \times 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 180 \text{ minutes} \]

Now, to find out how much time she has for each question, we divide the total time by the number of questions:

\[ \frac{180 \text{ minutes}}{45 \text{ questions}} = 4 \text{ minutes/question} \]

So, Irina has 4 minutes to spend on each question.

The correct answer is 4 minutes.
