Answer:

Hello! The answer to your question is 12:10.

Explanation:

1 hour after 10:55 is equivalent to 11:55. Now, we have 15 minutes remaining. We can add in increments of 5 to get to 15 in terms of time:

11:55 + 5 minutes

= 12:00 + 5 minutes

= 12:05 + 5 minutes

= 12:10

5 + 5 + 5 = 15, so we reached 15.

The teacher collected the answer scripts at 12:10.

Answer:

10+1=11 but the 55 so it is now 11:55+15min so it makes it 12:10
