How many chores can you accomplish in a set time?
Formatting: Indent after opening { and unindent after closing }. 

Variable naming: A better name for list would be choreList. 

When iterating through an array use an enhanced-for loop: 

for (int chore:list) {
        chore = Integer.parseInt(input.readLine());
}


Your algorithm for computing the maximum amount of chores that can be accomplished could be simplified as follows: 

for (int chore:list){
    maxMins -= chore;
    if (maxMins &gt; 0){
        chores++;
    }
    else {
        break;
    }
}
