The pupils in my class work very quickly. Jasleen answers four questions every 30 seconds and Ella answers five questions every 40 seconds. Last week, Jasleen took exactly 1 hour to answer a large set of questions. How many minutes more than Jasleen did Ella take to answer the same set of questions?

(A) 22 (B) 2122\frac{1}{2} (C) 3143\frac{1}{4} (D) 44 (E) 4124\frac{1}{2}
