Problem Statement

Niki usually leaves her cell phone on. If her cell phone is on but she is not actually using it, the battery will last for 2424 hours. If she is using it constantly, the battery will last for only 33 hours. Since the last recharge, her phone has been on 99 hours, and during that time she has used it for 6060 minutes. If she doesn't talk any more but leaves the phone on, how many more hours will the battery last?
