Noel read 90 minutes each day for 6 days. Tyra read 60 minutes each day for 8 days. What is the difference, in minutes, between the total amount of time Noel read and the total amount of time Tyra read?

Answer 1

90 x 6 = 540
60 x 8 = 480
540-580= 60
Noel read 60 minutes more than Tyra.

Answer 2

Noel read for 540 minutes every 6 days
Tyra read for 460 minutes every 6 days
90 x 2 = 180, 90 x 3 = 270, 90 x 4 = 360, 90 x 5 = 450, 90 x 6 = 540
60 x 2 = 120, 60 x 3 = 180, 60 x 4 = 240, 60 x 5 = 400, 60 x 6 = 460
