B. Write and solve an equation to find how many minutes Margo practice her flute in 1 day. Then use that to find the number of minutes she practices in 1 week.

Let's say Margo practices her flute for \( x \) minutes each day. The equation can be expressed as: \[ M = x \] To find the total practice time for one week, simply multiply the daily practice time by the number of days in a week (7): \[ \text{Total practice time in 1 week} = 7x \] For example, if Margo practices for 30 minutes a day, the equation would be: \[ M = 30 \] Then, for a week: \[ \text{Total practice time in 1 week} = 7 \times 30 = 210 \] So, Margo practices for 210 minutes in one week! Did you know that music practice can significantly boost cognitive abilities? Engaging in activities like playing the flute not only hones musical skills but also enhances memory, attention, and spatial-temporal skills—important foundations for math and science! Also, consistency is key! A common mistake is underestimating the power of short, regular practice sessions. Instead of cramming all your practice into one or two marathon sessions, try spreading it out—a little bit every day keeps the skills fresh and improves retention!
