The number of minutes Maria spends running each day and biking each day may vary; however, the total number of minutes she spends each day on these activities is constant and equal to 75. Choice D is incorrect. The number of minutes Maria spent biking for each minute spent running cannot be determined from the information provided.</p><p></p>\n","correct_answer":["C"],"has_media":true,"has_mathml":false,"has_table":false,"source_created_at":"2023-08-02T20:25:59.636000+00:00","source_updated_at":"2023-08-02T20:25:59.636000+00:00","options":[{"label":"A","content_html":"<p>The number of minutes spent running each day</p>\n","ord":0},{"label":"B","content_html":"<p>The number of minutes spent biking each day</p>\n","ord":1},{"label":"C","content_html":"<p>The total number of minutes spent running and biking each day</p>\n","ord":2},{"label":"D","content_html":"<p>The number of minutes spent biking for each minute spent running</p>\n","ord":3}],"attribution":{"source_id":"cb_question_bank","source_name":"College Board digital SAT question bank (community dump)","rights_holder":"College Board","canonical_url":"https://satsuitequestionbank.collegeboard.org/","retrieved_from":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mdn522/sat-question-bank/main/data/cb-digital-questions.json","attribution":"SAT practice questions © College Board, from the official SAT Suite Question Bank.
