Answer:

3:20 p.m.

Explanation:

We have been given that Yasmin arrived home from play practice at 4:25 p.m.

The the walk home took 15 minutes. The practice began 20 minutes after the final bell and lasted for a half hour.

Total time taken in all activities would be
\text{(15+20+30) minutes}


\text{65 minutes}

We need to subtract 1 hour and 5 minutes from 4:25 p.m.

1 hour before, 4:25 p.m. would be 3:25 p.m.

5 minutes before 3:25 p.m. would be 3:20 p.m.

Therefore, the school ended at 3:20 p.m.
