    Her call lasted for 11 minutes.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x represent the total number of minutes that her call lasted.

    Susan purchased a prepaid phone card for $25.

    Long-distance calls cost seven cents a minute using this card.

    Converting 7 cents to dollars, it becomes 7/100 = $0.07

    Susan used her card only to make a long distance call. It means that if she made x minutes of long distance call, the cost would be

    0.07 * x = $0.07x

    if there a remaining credit on her card is $24.23, therefore,

    0.07x + 24.23 = 25

    0.07x = 25 - 24.23 = 0.77

    x = 0.77/0.07

    x = 11 minutes
