Answer:

The answer is 21 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to take 5/9 and subtract it by 1/5 and you will get 16/45. Then you multiply 60 times 16/45 and get 21 1/3

Carter played 21 1/3 minutes more than Ryan.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find your total duration

Total duration of the game played =

60 minutes

Second find the number(s)

Part of the game played by Ryan =

1/5 of the game

Third first number x  total duration

Duration of game played by Ryan =

1/5 x 60 = 12 minutes

Fourth  find the second number(s)

Part of the game played by Carter

5/9

Fifth  second number x total duration

Duration of game played by Carter =

5/9 x 60 = 100/3 = 33 1/3

Sixth do mathematical operations

Difference between their duration =  or 21.33 minutes

33 1/3  - 12 = 21 1/3
