If Josh is number 32 in line and it takes 2 minutes to complete the circuit, how long will it take for him to finish?

To determine how long it will take Josh to finish, we need to consider his position in line and the time it takes for each person to complete the circuit. If it takes 2 minutes for each individual to complete the circuit and Josh is 32nd in line, he has to wait for 31 people to finish before it’s his turn.

The calculation for the total time is derived from multiplying the number of individuals before him by the time it takes for each to finish. Since there are 31 individuals ahead of Josh, we multiply 31 by 2 minutes:

31 x 2 minutes = 62 minutes.

After calculating this waiting time, we must also include the additional 2 minutes it will take for Josh himself to complete the circuit once it’s his turn. Therefore, we add these times together:

62 minutes (waiting) + 2 minutes (Josh's turn) = 64 minutes total.

However, the answer choice that corresponds to this total duration is listed as 1 hour and 4 minutes (which converts to 64 minutes when understood in singular time units). Recognizing that 1 hour is equivalent to 60 minutes and adding the 4 minutes brings us to a total of 64 minutes.
