Question

Terry finished cooking at 7:36 p.m. She cooked for 2 hours and 40 minutes. What time did she start cooking?​

Answer 1

2:56 pm

Explanation:

end time: 7:36 pm

Borrow one hour from the hours and add it as 60 minutes to the minutes.

7:36 pm = 6:96 pm

Now subtract 2:40 from 6:96.

Subtract 2 from 7 and subtract 40 from 96.

7:36 pm - 2:40 = 6:96 pm - 2:40 = 2:56 pm

Answer: 2:56 pm
