Answer:
40 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
time spent talking to his sister = (1 - 3/8) x 4/5 =
5/8 x 4/5 = 1/2
total fraction of time spent playing games and talking to his sister :
[tex]\frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{ 3 + 4}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]
fraction of time remaining to complete the journey = 1 - 7/8 = 1/8
let t = total journey time
1/8 x t = 5
multiply both sides of the equation by 8
t = 5 x 8 = 40 minutes
