Grocery store

You spend 4/5 of an hour at the mall. You spend 1/3 of that time in the food court. How many minutes are you in the food court?

Correct answer:

t =  16 min

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} t_1=1\text{ h}\to \text{ min}=1\cdot 60\text{ min}=60\text{ min } \\ {t}_2={\displaystyle \frac{4}{5}}\cdot t_1={\displaystyle \frac{4}{5}}\cdot 60=48\text{ min } \\ t={\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}}\cdot t_2={\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}}\cdot 48=16\text{ min} \end{gathered}$$
