Question

An airplane left Chicago at 9:50 AM Central Time and arrived in Memphis at 11:30 AM Central Time. How long did the flight take

Answer 1

Considering that both Chicago and Memphis are in the same time zone, the flight took one hour and 40 minutes.

What was the length of the flight?

It Chicago at 9:50 AM Central Time and arrived in Memphis at 11:30 AM Central Time. Since they are in the same time zone, we don't have to do anything but subtract, then:

11:30 - 9:50

30 < 50, hence we remove one hour from Memphis and add 60 minutes, thus:

10:90 - 9:50 = 1:40

The flight took one hour and 40 minutes.
