    Answer:

    a) 7:8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Alison: 5 minutes and 50 seconds = 355 seconds

    Elizabeth: 6 minutes and 40 seconds = 400 seconds

    355:400, reduces to 71:80 or 7:8

    Answer:

    7:8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, convert their times to common units. You’ll want to put it in seconds:

    5 minutes and 50 seconds = 350 seconds

    – multiply 5 minutes by 60 to get it into seconds and then add the other 50 seconds to it

    – for Elizabeth’s time, multiply 6 by 60 seconds and add 40 to it

    To get the ratio of their times, divide Alison’s time by Elizabeth’s time:

    350 ÷ 400 = 7:8
