390 minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
To find the total time in minutes<\/strong>, including breaks<\/strong>, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
The car covers 600 kilometers in 6 hours<\/strong>.
So, the basic travel time is 6 hours<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
The driver takes a 15-minute break<\/strong> for every hour<\/strong> of driving.
Since the trip lasts for 6 hours<\/strong>, the driver takes one 15-minute break after each hour<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Breaks are only taken after each full hour of driving<\/strong>, not at the end of the trip.
That means breaks are taken after the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th hours<\/strong>.
This results in 5 breaks<\/strong> in total.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Each break is 15 minutes<\/strong>, and there are 5 breaks<\/strong>.
So, the total break time is:
15 minutes \u00d7 5 = 75 minutes<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
Now, convert the 6 hours of driving time to minutes:
6 hours \u00d7 60 minutes\/hour = 360 minutes<\/strong>
Add the total break time:
360 minutes + 75 minutes = 435 minutes<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
There is a mistake in the assumption. The car travels for 6 hours in total<\/strong>, meaning this already includes driving plus breaks<\/strong>. But the question seems to ask how long the trip would take in minutes<\/strong> if<\/strong> the driver takes 15-minute breaks per driving hour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
