Solution

7 minutes 20 seconds = 7 minutes + 20 seconds = 7 × 60 + 20 = 420 + 20 = 440 seconds       ...(1 minute = 60 seconds)

5 minutes 6 seconds = 5 minutes + 6 seconds = 5 × 60 + 6 = 300 + 6 = 306 seconds

∴ 7 minutes 20 seconds : 5 minutes 6 seconds 

∴ 440 seconds : 306 seconds = `440/306`

= `(440 ÷ 2)/(306 ÷ 2)`

= `220/153`

= `220 : 153`      ...(HCF of 220 and 153 = 2)
