Answer 1

Answer:

3hr 25 min

Step-by-step explanation:

15min + 60 min +60 min + 60min + 10 min=205 min

3hr 25 min

Answer 2

The time of the show was 3 hours 25 minutes

Given : The film began to 2:45 p.m. and ended at 6:10 p.m.

To find : The time (duration) of the show.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the time duration of the show)

Here, we will be using general arithmetic method.

First of all, we will calculate the full hours starting from the time of the beginning of the show. Then remaining time (in minutes) will be added later.

Now, we know that :

2:45 p.m. to 3:45 p.m. = 1 hour duration

Similarly,

2:45 p.m. the 5:45 p.m. = 3 hours duration (1)

But, the ending time was = 6:10 p.m.

Time duration between 5:45 p.m. and 6:10 p.m. = 25 minutes (2)

(5:45 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. = 15 minutes ; 6:10 p.m. means addition of 10 minutes ; total of 25 minutes)

Adding (1) and (2) :

Total time duration = 3 hours + 25 minutes = 3hr 25min

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, time of the show was 3 hours 25 minutes
