Question

If Tommy started work at 7 a.m. and left at 2:45 p.m., how many hours should he record for the day on his time card?

Answer 1

The answer would be 7.75 that's what he would put on his time card

Answer 2

7 hours 45 minutes

Explanation:

If Tommy started work at 7 a.m. and left at 2:45 p.m

To find out the record time for the day , subtract the time left from the time started.

`2.45 pm - 7 am`

The difference between 7 am and 2 pm is 7 hours

Now we add the extra 45 minutes

So the time record for the day is 7 hours 45 minutes
