Question

1. nancy walked 50 minutes each day for 4 days last week. gillian walked 35 minutes each day for 6 days last week. how does the total number of minutes that gillian walked compare to the total number of minutes that nancy walked?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate Nancy's total walking minutes

Nancy walked 50 minutes each day for 4 days. So we multiply the minutes per day by the number of days: $50\times4 = 200$ minutes.

Step2: Calculate Gillian's total walking minutes

Gillian walked 35 minutes each day for 6 days. So we multiply the minutes per day by the number of days: $35\times6 = 210$ minutes.

Step3: Compare the two totals

Now we compare Gillian's total (210 minutes) with Nancy's total (200 minutes). We can find the difference: $210 - 200 = 10$ minutes. So Gillian walked 10 minutes more than Nancy.

Answer:

Gillian walked 10 minutes more than Nancy (Gillian's total is 210 minutes, Nancy's total is 200 minutes, and \(210-200 = 10\)).
