Answer:

70 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first convert the 4.5 hours to minutes. We know that there's 60 mins in an hour, so we can just multiply 4.5 by 60 to get 270 minutes. Now we know the total time spent at the mall.

Then, we can add the times given in the question.

130 mins + 70 mins + walking mins = 270 mins

To solve, simply collect like terms:

200 mins + walking mins = 270 mins

walking mins = 270 mins - 200 mins

walking mins = 70 mins
