Which item has a cook time longer than four minutes?

• A. Fresh Tenders 3:30 MIN
• B. Fries 4:30 MIN
• C. Mushrooms 1:35 MIN
• D. Honey Wheat Bread 20 SEC EACH SIDE

Answer: (B)

Cook times are read in minutes and seconds, so you just compare each time to four minutes. The fries require four minutes and thirty seconds, which is longer than four minutes, so it exceeds the four-minute mark. The other items finish in three minutes and thirty seconds, one minute and thirty-five seconds, and twenty seconds per side—each shorter than four minutes. Converting to seconds can help if you’re unsure: 4:30 is 270 seconds, versus 240 seconds for four minutes, so fries clearly takes longer.
