Question

Your shift at TRMC begins at 11:00pm. It takes you 45 minutes to get ready, then 20 minutes to drive to work every night. What time (military) should you start getting ready for work? What time (military) will you arrive if there is a traffic delay of 10 minutes?​

Answer 1

a. 21:55 hrs

b. 2310 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

a. It takes 20 minutes to get to work so subtract that from 11:00 pm.

= 11:00 - 0:20

= 10:40 pm

It takes 45 minutes to get ready so subtract that from 10:40pm:

= 10:40 - 45

= 9:55 pm

Military time uses the 24 hour notation.

In military time this is: 2155 hrs.

b. If there is a 10 minutes delay and you are to arrive at 11:00 pm, you will arrive at:

= 11:00 + 0:10

= 11:10 pm

This is 2310 hrs in military time.
