Decide whether the statement makes sense. Explain your reasoning.Javier takes a shower to save time. When he gets into the shower at 6:50, he is out by 7:10. When he used to take baths, it would take him a quarter of an hour.
What will be an ideal response?
Does not make sense. A quarter of an hour is 15 minutes, while the time between 6:50 and 7:10 is 20 minutes. It takes him five more minutes to shower, so to do it to save time doesn't make sense. (Explanations will vary.)
