Scan equation I don't get, HELP
Here's the question:
The approximate scan time of a rapid spin echo sequence with a TR of 3500ms, a TE of 90ms, a 256x256 matrix, 1 exicitation, a 220mm FOV and an echo train length of 5 is______ minutes.

Formal they give is 3500msx1x256/5=?
a.3
b. 8
c. 11
d. 15

I get 179200. What am I missing in my studies and the math?

 to make it easy convert the ms into minutes.
3500ms= 3.5 minutes (3 steps to left)
3.5*256*1= 896/60= 14.93/5 gives an answer of 2.9 or 3 minutes.

 3500ms=3.5 seconds!
