Question

when i worked at southern it took me 8min to get to work. now, it takes me 26min to get to work. what is the increase in the time it takes me to get to work

Answer 1

The increase in the time to get to work is 18 min.

Explanation:

Given:

Time took at southern to get to work
`T_(1)` = 8 min.

Time it takes now to get to work
`T_(2)` = 26 min.

Now, to get the increase in time we subtract
`T_(2) -T_(1)` :

`T_(2) -T_(1)`

`=26-8`

`=18`.

Therefore, the increase in the time to get to work is 18 min.
