Question

List five different times in which the minutes before are the same as the minutes after the hour

Answer 1

• 5:50 and 6:10

• 2:15 and 1:45

• 7:40 and 8:20

• 11:55 and 12:05

• 4:30 and 3:30

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to write 5 different times such that the minutes after is equal to the numbers before that hour.

• First time is:

5:50 and 6:10

Thus in this time 5:50 the minute before 6 is 10 minutes and in the time 6:10 the minutes after is 10 minutes.

• Second time are:

2:15 and 1:45

The time 2:15 represents fifteen minutes after 2 and the time 1:45 represents fifteen minutes before 2.

• Third time is:

7:40 and 8:20

The time 7:40 represents 20 minutes before 8 and 8:20 represents 20 minutes after 8.

• Fourth time is:

11:55 and 12:05

The time 11:55 represents 5 minutes before 12 and 12:05 represents 5 minutes after 12.

• Fifth time is:

4:30 and 3:30

Where 4:30 represents 30 minutes after 4 and 3:30 represents 30 minutes

before 4.
