Question

George started playing video games at 4:50 if he took a break at 7:15 how long he had been playing​

Answer 1

Answer:

Two hours twenty five minutes

Answer 2

Answer:

2 hours 25 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

4:50 time he started playing to 7:15 time he took a break

7:15 - 4:50

since 15 - 50 is impossible, you borrow an hour from 7 to 15

then you convert 1 hour to 60 minutes.

Add 60 minutes to 15 minutes giving you 75 minutes.

Subtract 50 from 75 which gives 25 minutes then move over to the hour part.

now it is 4 hours from 6 hours leaving 2 hours

therefor 2 hours 25 minutes
