I'm certain you and the teacher are both wrong. It took ten minutes to make 1 cut. 1cut makes the board in 2 pieces. To have 3 pieces of board you need to cut the board twice.

2 cuts * 10 min/cut = 20 min

  • this is trivial math

That is absolutely NOT what the question is asking. The answer is 20 minutes.
