Final answer:

The task involves calculating the total time for multiple activities; by summing up the minutes and converting them into hours, we can determine the time at which an event, like Maria arriving at her friend's house, will occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerical statement "4. 8 tomatoes for S2. Slips in 3 hours." seems to be a typo and makes little sense as it is. However, if we are to assume that the task involves calculating time for multiple activities and their total, we can use an example to illustrate how to do this. For instance, if Maria needs to spend 15 minutes at the post office, 1 hour and 25 minutes at the mall, and 20 minutes driving to her friend's house, we first add up the time for each activity:

  • 15 minutes at the post office
  • 1 hour and 25 minutes at the mall
  • 20 minutes driving to her friend's house

Adding these together:

1 hr 25 min + 20 min + 15 min = 1 hr 60 min

We simplify the 60 minutes into 1 hour. Therefore:

1 hr + 1 hr = 2 hr

If Maria leaves at 1:00 pm and the total time for her errands is 2 hours, she will arrive at her friend's house at 3:00 pm.
