Answer:

It will take 8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

3 hours 28 minutes = how many minutes

3 hours * 60 minute/hour = 180 minutes

3 hours 28 minutes =180 +28 = 208 minutes


We can use proportions to solve

26 miles               1 mile

---------------    =   --------------

208 minutes           x minutes

Using cross products

26 * x = 208 *1

26x = 208

Divide by 26

26x/26 = 208/26

x = 8

It will take 8 minutes
