Question
In Ahmad's school, recess ends at 12:55 pm.The recess is 80 minutes.What time does recess start?
Solution
To find out when recess starts, we need to subtract the duration of the recess from the time it ends. Here are the steps:
-
Convert the end time to minutes: There are 60 minutes in an hour, so 12:55 pm is 775 minutes past midnight (12 hours * 60 minutes/hour + 55 minutes).
-
Subtract the duration of the recess: 775 minutes - 80 minutes = 695 minutes.
-
Convert this back to hours and minutes: There are 11 hours and 35 minutes in 695 minutes (11 hours * 60 minutes/hour + 35 minutes).
So, recess starts at 11:35 am.
