Answer 1

Given:

The International Space Station takes 644 minutes to orbit Earth 7 times.

To find:

The time taken by each orbit.

Solution:

Total time = 644 minutes

Total number of orbits =7

Now,

`\text{Time taken be each orbit}=\frac{\text{Total time}}{\text{Number of orbits}}`

`\text{Time taken be each orbit}=(644)/(7)`

`\text{Time taken be each orbit}=92`

So, the required time is 92 minutes.

Therefore, you are correct and all options are incorrect.
