Question

student starts for his school at 9:40 a.m. and comes back to his home at 4:15 p.m. determine the duration of time spent by him in the school if half an hour is spent in coming and going​

Answer 1

$\fbox{SOLUTION}$

⇒ Hours between 9:40 am to 4:15 pm  = 6 hrs 35 mins

⇒ Minutes in half an hour = 30 mins

⇒ 6 hrs 35 mins - 30 mins

⇒ 6 hrs 5 mins

----------------------

DURATION OF TIME SPENT BY STUDENT IN SCHOOL = 6 hours 5 mins .

----------------------

How To Calculate Hours In Between Two Times:

• Convert both times to 24 hour format, adding 12 to any pm hours. 8:55am becomes 8:55 hours (start time) ...

• If the start minutes are greater than the end minutes… ...

• Subtract end time minutes from start time minutes… ...

• Subtract the hours… ...

• Put(not add) the hours and minutes together – 6:45 (6 hours and 45 minutes)
