Question 1076237: A basketball team has eight players,each of whom plays for an equal amount of time. With five players in the game at any one time, how many minutes will each player get to play if a game lasts for 48 minutes? Can you help explain in detail? Thank you! :)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! You need 5 players on the floor for the whole game (48 mins.), making a grand total of 240 minutes between all players. If the team has 8 players, whom are to get equal playing time each, then 240/8=30 mins. per player. Each player gets 30 mins. of playing time, if the total playing time is divided equally between all players. ☺☺☺☺
