28 minutes
subtract 20 and 13.28, divide that answer by .24, and you get your answer
Find amount used:
Amount in the card = $20
Amount left = $13.28
Amount used = $20 - $13.28 = $6.72

Find duration of the call:
24 cents = 1 min
672 cents = 1/24 x 672 = 28 mins

Answer: The call was 28 minutes long.
