Question

We reached our destination at 2: 45 pm after travelling for 4 1/2 hours. When did we start ?​

Answer 1

Time at which we reached the destination= 2:45

Travelling duration=4 1/2 hrs

So, starting time =

14:45

- 4:30

= 10:15

Answer 2

Given:

finishing time = 2:45 pm

time taken = 4 : 30 hrs

To Find:

Starting time

Solution:

let us convert time in 24 hrs format

finishing time = 14 : 45 Hrs

Starting time = finishing time - time taken

starting time = 14 : 45 - 4 : 30 hrs

staring time = 10 : 15 hrs

So, starting time = 10 : 15 A.M.
