Question

Oliver read for 450 minutes this month. His goal is to read for 10% more minutes next month.

If Oliver meets his goal, how many minutes will he read in all during the two months?
Oliver will read __minutes in the 2 months.

Answer 1

495 min

Explanation:

Answer 2

945 minutes

Explanation:

The first step is to find 10% of 450:

`(10*450)/(100*1)`

10 times 450 is 4500 and 100 times 1 is 100

Then 4500 divided by 100 and the answer is 45 minutes.

After that add that 10% of 450 ( 45 ) to 450 to find the minutes he reads in the next month and the answer is 495 minutes.

So because you want the time he read in the two months add 450 and 495 tp get:

450 + 495 = 945

So Oliver read for 945 in the 2 MONTHS.
