Use the factor to convert 90 seconds to minutes. I'm not sure how to do this?

Step 1. We note that 60 seconds = 1 minute

Step 2. 90 seconds * 1 minute/60 seconds = 90/60 minutes = 1.5 minutes

where the seconds cancel since it appears both in the numerator and denominator.

Step 3. ANSWER is 1.5 minutes which is equivalent to 90 seconds.
I hope the above steps and explanation were helpful.
