Anybody talking about how this problem is ambiguous or under-specified are of course technically correct. By making that claim though, you are ignoring the context of the problem!
This is a 3rd grade math test that even includes an illustration of how the cuts are made! Within that context, the answer is unambiguously 20 minutes.
