You are playing a new video game. It says that you have completed 1/5 of the game. You have played for 23 minutes. Write and solve an equation to find how long it will take to complete your video game at this rate.(1 point) It will take blank minutes to complete the game.

Answer 1

To find out how long it will take to complete the game at the current rate, we can set up the equation based on the information provided.

Let \( x \) be the total time in minutes required to complete the game.

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

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

Now, we'll solve the equation for \( x \):

1. Multiply both sides by 5 to isolate \( x \):

\[ x = 23 \times 5 \]

2. Calculate \( 23 \times 5 \):

\[ x = 115 \]

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

Therefore, it will take 115 minutes to complete the game.
