I also agree on the clip! I'd be a touch worried if anyone was giving anything else to be honest!
 
Have I read/misunderstood number 3? Would someone be able to explain the answer

The wording is (possibly) designed to confuse.

Basically you were originally going to add 3 minutes, you've already played 2 at the point of the 5 minute long stoppage. The length of the stoppage is irrelavant, you've got 1 minute left to play still when the match restarts. Obviously, if that 5 minute long stoppage occured in normal time, you'd add it to your stoppage time. But because it occurs in stoppage time, you're now effectively going to play until 8 minutes has been added, but by the time the 5 minute stoppage has finished, (which didn't start until after 2 minutes of added time), there is 1 minute left to play.

I can try...

3 minutes stoppage = 3 additional minutes of playing time.

So if after 2 minutes have elapsed, a 5 minute stoppage occurs you still have 1 minute playing time remaining.

Indicate 3, stoppage at 92, restart after injury 97, full time 98.

Glass houses and all that 😂
 
If anything it's as much a maths question as a laws of the game question! I'm great at maths, but terrible at explaining my working! 😆

I wouldn't use the word confuse. I'd say misdirect, which would have been perfect if one of the options was 6 minutes. Many, including I would have fallen for it and pick the wrong answer.

Here a philosophical explanation
the remaining playing time does not change whilst the game is not being played

I still don’t get it. I am absolutely no good at maths. The answer I got was 6 so chose 5 as that was the closest. Typical school exam. So I shouldn’t be adding the 5 on because it hasn’t impacted the 3 we we’re playing?

I think the easiest way to put it is it's 3 +5, total time to elapse = 8 minutes.
3 mins indicated. 5 mins stoppage.
At the point the question is asking you to calculate 7 minutes have elapsed (2 +5).
So the final calculation is 8-7 = 1 minute remaining.

I would explain it a different way that involves little maths. The keyword to pay attention to here is "playing" time. At the moment the game is stopped for injury how long playing time is left? 3 minutes was added, 2 is gone so we have 1 minutes playing time left (this is the only maths we need). Now there is a stoppage. Short, long, medium, very long... No matter how long the stoppage, you still have 1 minutes playing time left.

Stating the length of injury time, in the question or the explanation, is totally unnecessary and just confuses things.
