Annabel went to Akido and got the jumbo sushi boat. The boat had a total of 153 pieces of sushi on it. If she ate at a constant rate of 3 pieces of sushi per 2 minutes, how long will it take her to eat 65% of the boat? Round your answer to the nearest minute
65% of 153 <-- amount of sushi
x/153 = 65/100
100x = 9945
100x/100 = 9945/100
x = 99.45 <-- 65% of the sushi boat
3/2 = 99.45/x

Gwen is watching a movie that is 1hr and 40mins long. She watches 30% before she stops to get a snack. She resumes the movie and watches 8% more before Ellery comes in and joins her. They finish the movie together. How many minutes did Gwen and Ellery watch together?
Gwen: 34% of 100mins
30% of 100 = 30
1% of 100 = 1
So.. Gwen watched 38mins alone
Gwen&Ellery: 100 - 38 = 62mins together
