Answer 1

Answer: 5.43 minutes

Explanation:

Number of minutes for the drama group = 90 minutes

Number of times to practice the pirate scene = 4

Time taken to practice the pirate scene = 13

The number of minutes used for pirate scene will be:

= 4 × 13 = 52 minutes

The number of full times that the group can practice the mermaid scene will then be:

= (90 - 52) / 7

= 38 / 7

= 5.43 minutes
