Answer 1

Given

Jackie's class took a field trip to the art museum.

They left school at 11:00 A.M.

It took them 30 minutes to drive to the museum.

They stayed at the museum for 3 hours.

To find:

What time was it when Jackie's class left the museum?

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Jackie's class took a field trip to the art museum.

They left school at 11:00 A.M.

It took them 30 minutes to drive to the museum.

They stayed at the museum for 3 hours.

That implies,

Since,

Jackie's class left the school at 11:00 A.M and drove for 30 minutes.

Then,

The time at which they reach the museum is,

`\begin{gathered} Time\text{ }taken\text{ }to\text{ }reach\text{ }the\text{ }museum=30\text{ }mins \\ \therefore Jackie^(\prime)s\text{ }class\text{ }reach\text{ }the\text{ }museum\text{ }at\text{ }(11.00+0.30)=11.30\text{ }A.M \end{gathered}`

Also,

Since,

They stayed at the museum for 3 hours.

Then,

`\begin{gathered} Jackie^(\prime)s\text{ }class\text{ }left\text{ }the\text{ }museum\text{ }at\text{ }(11.30+3.00)=14.30\text{ }hours \\ That\text{ }is, \\ They\text{ }left\text{ }the\text{ }museum\text{ }at\text{ }(12.00+2.30)\text{ }hours=2.30\text{ }P.M \end{gathered}`

Hence, they left the museum at 2.30 P.M.
