Question

It is now twenty-five to four. What time will it be in one hour and forty-six minutes?

Answer 1

5:21

Explanation:

We know that currently (in the problem) it is 25 min before 4, or 3:35. When we add an hour to that (first part of the problem), we get 4:35. The way l like to continue from here is to take the second part (the 46 min) and just use part of it to round the hour off, and then add the other part to it.

From 4:35 to 5, we have 25 min

4.35 + 25 = 5

We subtract those 25 min from the 46 min, since we used them to round the hour off.

46 - 25 = 21

We have 21 min left, and now that the hour is rounded off, it's way easier to add minutes to it.

5 + .21 = 5.21.

So an hour and 46 min from 3:35 it will be 5:21. I hope this helps :)
