Question

2. Mr. Walters starts preparing breakfast at
6:45 AM. He finishes at 7:50 AM. How long
does it take for him to prepare breakfast?

Answer 1

Answer: 55 minutes

Explanation:

Round 6:45 to 6:50.
From 6:50 it takes 1 hour/60 minutes to become 7:50.
Then subtract the 5 minutes we added when we rounded up to 6:50.
60-5=55 minutes

Answer 2

65 minutes

Between 6:45 and 7:00, there are 15 minutes.

Between 7:00 and 7:50, there are 50 minutes.

15 minutes + 50 minutes = 65 minutes or an hour and 5 minutes
