Answer 2

Explanation:

We can calculate the elapsed time between each pair by subtracting.

A. 8:30 am to 11:15 am = 11:15 - 8:30 = 2 hours 45 minutes

B. When one time in a.m. and another time in p.m., We will convert p.m. time to 24 hours time format, as 4:44 pm = 16:44 pm. Now we can subtract easily.

B. 9:10 am to 4:44 pm = 16:44 - 9:10 = 7 hours 34 minutes

C. 5:15 pm to 11:29 pm = 11:29 - 5:15 = 6 hours 14 minutes

D. 5:20 p.m. to 1:15 am = 17:20 - 1:15 = 7 hours 55 minutes

E. 8:36 am to 7:35 pm = 19:35 - 8:36 = 10 hours 59 minutes

F. 3:00 pm to 11:59 pm = 15:00 - 11:59 = 8 hours 59 minutes.
