Question

Jasmine left the house at 7.10 am to go to work. She gets back at 6.35 pm. How long is she out of the house?

Answer 1

Jasmine is out of the house for 11 hours and 25 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how long Jasmine is out of the house, we need to subtract the time she leaves from the time she gets back.

First, let's convert the times to a 24-hour format for easier calculation.

7.10 am is equivalent to 07:10 in 24-hour format. 6.35 pm is equivalent to 18:35 in 24-hour format.

Now, subtract 07:10 from 18:35:

1. Subtract the minutes: 35 - 10 = 25
2. Subtract the hours: 18 - 7 = 11

So, Jasmine is out of the house for 11 hours and 25 minutes.
