Question

After leaving his house, Nate drove fifteen minutes to take his oldest daughter to the middle school and then drove ten minutes to take his two younger daughters to the elementary school. Next, Nate drove twenty-five minutes to work. If Nate arrived at work at 9:30 a.M., what time did he leave his house?

Answer 1

8:40 AM, 15 + 10 + 25 = 50 so go 50 minutes backwards.

Answer 2

The time Nate left his house is 8 : 40 am

After leaving his house, Nate drove 15 minutes to take his oldest daughter to the middle school . Therefore,

Time spent to middle school

• t = 15 minutes

Then he drove ten minutes to take his two younger daughters to the elementary school. Therefore,

Time spent to elementary school

• t = 10 minutes

He drove twenty-five minutes to work. Therefore,

Time spent to work

• t = 25 minutes

He arrived at work at 9:30 am. The time he left home can be calculated as follows:

Total time spent on the road = 15 + 10 + 25 = 50 minutes

Therefore,

Time he left home = 9:30 - 50 = 8 : 40 am
