There are 200 questions on a 3 hr examination.Among these
questions are 50 mathematics problems.It is suggested that
twice as much time be spent on each maths problem as for
each other question.How many minutes should be spent on
mathematics problems, plz give detail, how to solve?
Answer Posted / ashraf
we assume that X is the time taken for each general question
then the time taken for math problem is 2X
then 150X+50(2X)=3hours
then x=(3*60)/250 min
x=18/25 min
then the time taken for math problem is 2X=2*18/25=36/25
