Answer:

1590 minutes

Explanation:

November 17 ends on 12:00, which is 8 hours after 4:00 pm. The time from the beginning of November 18 to noon is 12 hours, and the distance from noon to 6:30 is 6 hours and 30 minutes, so the total time in hours is 8+12+6 +1/2=26 1/2.

Because we know that one hour is 60 minutes, 26 hours is going to be 60*26, which is equal to 60*20+60*6=1560.

1/2 * 60 = 30. 1560+30=1590, so the value of minutes is 1590 minutes.
