Question

it is 9:00 now. it was _ half an hour ago​

Answer 1

It is 9:00 now. it was 8:30 half an hour ago​

Step-by-step explanation:

We know half an hour =30 minutes

Now it is 9:00 .

We have to find the time half an hour ago.

Half an hour ago means 30 minutes before.

It is 9  o'clock  means hour hand is at 9 and and minute hand is at 12

so 60 minutes- 30 minutes=30 minutes

So subtract 30 minutes from 9:00

so 9:00 - 30 minutes=8:30

Therefore half an hour ago from 9:00 , it was 8:30
