Question

Hamid's soccer game is 2 hrs. and 15 mins. long. The game starts at 11:00 A.M. The park closes at 6:30 P.M. Each soccer game is the same as Hamid's game. How many more games can be played before the park closes?

Answer 1

e

Explanation:

Soccer game lasts 2 hours and 15 minutes

The game starts at 11:00 A

The park closes at 6:30

The first thing we need to do is to find when Hamid's soccer game finishes

2 1/4 + 11:00 = 13 1/4 = 1:15

(uh so don't know if this is the correct formula for finding time but the answer is correct)

Guessing that each game lasts 2 hrs and 15 mins, we do the same thing

1.25 + 2.25 = 3.75 = 3 3/4 = 3:45

(i added decimals bc i find it the easiest way for me) 1 game

3.75 + 2.25 = 6 (another game)

The answer is 2 games including Hamid's soccer game.

Hope this helps :)
