Question

We left Mississauga at 7:30am. We arrived at Canada’s Wonderland 2 hours and 45 minutes later. Did we make it on time for the park opening at 10:00 am? Explain how you know!

Answer 1

Explanation:

no you didnt.

you were late by 15minutes

Answer 2

7:30 am to 10:00 am is 2 hours and 30 minutes.

7:30 to 8:30 is 1 hour

8:30 to 9:30 is 1 hour

9:30 to 10:00 is a half hour, which is 30 minutes.

Since it took 2 hours and 45 minutes to arrive, they arrived at 10:15 which was not in time for the opening.
