Answer:

The movie finished at 6:53 p.m.

Explanation:

The movie is 90 minutes long, and there were two commercial breaks. The first break lasted 8 minutes, and the second break lasted 5 minutes. So the sum of the commercial breaks is 8 + 5 which is 13 minutes.

To calculate the finishing time, we add the duration of the movie (90 minutes) and the total duration of the commercial breaks (13 minutes) to the starting time (5:10 p.m.).

Convert the starting time to a 24-hour format for easier calculations.

5:10 p.m. in a 24-hour format is 17:10.

Add the durations:

17:10 + 90 minutes = 18:40

18:40 + 13 minutes = 18:53

That means the movie finished at 6:53 p.m.
