Diane rented a movie she started the movie at 10:46 p.m. and it was 3 hours and 31 minutes long when did the movie in ​

we have that

10:46 p.m + 3 hours=10:46 p.m+( 1 h 14 min +1 h 46 min)

because

3 hours=1 h 14 min +1 h 46 min

so

10:46 p.m+1 h 14 min=12:00 am

12:00 am+1 h 46 min=01:46 am

01:46 am+31 min

31 min=14 min+17 min

01:46 am+14 min+17 min=02:00 am+17 min=02:17 am

answer is

02:17 am

Step-by-step explanation

REmember that 1 hour=60 minutes

so

10:46 pm=10 h+46 min=10(60)+46=646 min

3 h 31 min=3h+31 min=3(60)+31=211 min

adds the numbers

646+211=857 minutes

Convert to hours and minutes

Divide by 60

857/60=14,28

that means -------> 14 hours

14(60)=840 minutes

857 minutes=840+17 min=14 h+17 min

14 h=14-12=2:00 am

therefore

2:17 am
