Passage: When I woke up this morning the first thing I saw was how many dirty clothes were lying all over the floor of my room . I told myself in my head that I needed to wash these clothes as soon as possible because my room looked like a tornado came through it . I gathered all the dirty clothes around my room and my bathroom into my dirty clothes hamper laundry bag . I use this bag because I live upstairs and I do n't like having to back track across my home if I drop any clothes when I bring them to the washing machine which is located downstairs . I start by throwing all the clothes into the washing machine followed by using whatever laundry detergent I have at the time . Today I still had some liquid detergent left over from the last load of laundry I did so I carefully measured half a cup of detergent into the measuring cup and dumped it over the dirty clothes . I closed the washing machine and turned the dial on the machine to run for 45 minutes . Question: How long does washing them take? Option1: About 30 minutes. Option2: 45 minutes
45 minutes
