You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First you should convert 90 minutes to seconds since that is what the answer wants
60 seconds in one minute you would take
90%2A60
5400 seconds to complete the test
Next you want to take the time divided by the number of questions to get the amount of time per question
5400%2F110
49.09 seconds per question.
