Question

Kevin started his science test at 2:34 p.m ,after finishing the test 75 minutes later. Kevin has football practice at 4:15 p.m. How much time did Kevin have between the end of the test and the beginning of football practice? 1 hour = 60 minutes

Answer 1

Answer:

ok

2:34 + 1:15=3:49

and 4:15-3:49

=26

so he got 26 min in between

Answer 2

Answer:

75 minutes later mean 1 hour 15 minute so After 2 : 34 mean 3 : 49 .

So time left to 4 : 15 is 26 minutes .

**It is easy this way . If you want you can convert them to decimal fraction and solve but that will be unnecessarily lengthy .
