Answer:

  • 150 min or 2.5 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let it be x.

Then we have:

  • 50 = 1/3x
  • x = 50*3
  • x = 150 min = 2.5 hr

Let the required length be x

ATQ

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{1}{3}x=50[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x}{3}=50[/tex]

  • Use cross multiplication

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=50(3)[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=150min[/tex]
