- How much time did he spend on both projects?
- How much longer did he spend on his Science project than his Social studies project?
(a)
Time that Paul took to do Chinese project = 3 h 35 min
Time that Paul took to do Social studies project = 40 min
Total time that Paul spent on both projects
= 3 h 35 min + 40 min
= 4 h 15 min
(b)
Time that Paul spent on Science project longer than Social studies project
= 3 h 35 min - 40 min
= 2 h 55 min
Answer(s): (a) 4 h 15 min; (b) 2 h 55 min
