Question

hero · Answer

206/60 = 3.43 (ignore remainder)

3*60 = 180

206 - 180 = 26

The movie was 3 hours and 26 minutes long

anonymous · Answer

From Mathematica:
QuotientRemainder[ 206, 60 ] = { 3, 26}  ->  3 hours, 26 minutes

robtobey, what's up with the re-posts? There's no need to re-post afterward. Just say you agree with the answer and move on or just give a medal for a correct response.

Well in this case I don't see what harm was done.  The calculations were slightly different in their approach.  As far as medals are concerned I received zero.
