C.

1.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

total homework time = math homework time + non math homework time

math homework time = 5 problems * 2 minutes/problem

= 10 minutes

= 10 minutes * 1hr/60 minutes =.167 hrs

non math homework time = 1.6 hours

total homework time = math homework time + non math homework time

total homework time =.167 + 1.6

total homework time = 1.77 hrs

rounding

total homework time = 1.8 hrs
