To solve the problem of converting units of time from minutes to seconds, we need to use the fact that
1 minute = 60 seconds. We will multiply each given number of minutes by 60 to find the equivalent time in seconds.
Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
5 minutes
\[
5 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 300 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
5 minutes →
300 seconds
2.
2 minutes
\[
2 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 120 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
2 minutes →
120 seconds
3.
8 minutes
\[
8 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 480 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
8 minutes →
480 seconds
4.
7 minutes
\[
7 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 420 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
7 minutes →
420 seconds
5.
6 minutes
\[
6 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 360 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
6 minutes →
360 seconds
6.
4 minutes
\[
4 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 240 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
4 minutes →
240 seconds
7.
10 minutes
\[
10 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 600 \text{ seconds}
\]
Match:
10 minutes →
600 seconds
Final Matches:
-
5 minutes →
300 seconds
-
2 minutes →
120 seconds
-
8 minutes →
480 seconds
-
7 minutes →
420 seconds
-
6 minutes →
360 seconds
-
4 minutes →
240 seconds
-
10 minutes →
600 seconds
