What is the equivalent of 10°48' in time units?

A 2 min. 39 sec.
B 43 min. 12 sec.
C 50 min. 12 sec.
D 20 min. 12 sec.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 43 min. 12 sec. To convert 10°48' to time units, we can use the formula: 1° = 4 min. Therefore, 10°48' = (10 x 4) + 48 = 40 + 48 = 43 min. 12 sec. The other options are incorrect because: A) 2 min. 39 sec. is too short C) 50 min. 12 sec. is too long D) 20 min. 12 sec. is too short
