Answer

C

Step-by-step solution

3 steps

  1. Identify the time spent walking and the time spent on the bus.

    Beatrice walks for 15 minutes.
    The bus journey takes 54 minutes.

  2. Calculate the total travel time by adding the walking time and the bus journey time.

    Total time=Walking time+Bus journey time\text{Total time} = \text{Walking time} + \text{Bus journey time} Total time=15 minutes+54 minutes\text{Total time} = 15 \text{ minutes} + 54 \text{ minutes} Total time=69 minutes\text{Total time} = 69 \text{ minutes}

  3. Convert the total time from minutes to hours and minutes.

    Since 1 hour equals 60 minutes, we can express 69 minutes as:

    69 minutes=60 minutes+9 minutes69 \text{ minutes} = 60 \text{ minutes} + 9 \text{ minutes} 69 minutes=1 hour and 9 minutes69 \text{ minutes} = 1 \text{ hour and } 9 \text{ minutes}

    The minimum time Beatrice takes to travel from her house to the school is 1 hour and 9 minutes.

    The correct option is C.

    C. 1 hour and 9 minutes\boxed{\text{C. 1 hour and 9 minutes}}
