A computer company claims its laptop has a battery that lasts for hours the laptop actually ran for 200 minutes before the battery ran out did the battery last 4 hours...?

Respuesta :

Answer: The battery didn’t last 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to convert the minutes that the battery lasted into hours.

Since 60 minutes are equal to 1 hour, the proportion is : 60 minutes / 1 hour

For 200 minutes: 200 min/ x hours

60/1 = 200/x

Solving for x

x = 200/ (60/1)

x = 3.34 hours

The battery didn’t last 4 hours.

Because 3.34 hours < 4 hours.
