Answer:

The complete interval of game was 3: 55 hours.

Explanation:

the starting time of game = 10: 23 AM

The ending time of game = 2: 18 PM

So, the duration of the game interval is = 2: 18 PM - 10: 23 AM

Divide the time interval into two parts: BEFORE 12 and AFTER 12

I) The duration of the game before 12 : 00 PM

= 12: 00 PM - 10: 23 AM = 1 : 37 hours

II) The duration of the after 12 : 00 PM

= 2: 18 PM - 12: 00 PM = 2: 18 hours

So, the total interval of match = Interval before 12 + interval after 12

= 1 : 37 hours + 2: 18 hours = 3: 55 hours

Hence, the complete interval of game was 3: 55 hours.
