Carmel is watching a play at the theatre.

The play started at 16 30
The play is 115 minutes long.
When the play ends, Carmel takes 30 minutes to get to the bus stop.
A bus leaves the bus stop at 18 45
Does Carmel get to the bus stop in time to get this bus?

Explanation:

play started 16:30

its 115 min long = 1:55 hours

16:30+ 1:55=18:25 hours

now he takes 30 min to reach bus stop

18:25 + 30 mins = 18:55

therefore, he reaches the bus stop 10 mins late
