You have to catch the bus at 11:15am for a movie! It

takes you twenty minutes to shower and dress, fifteen minutes to eat breakfast, and ten
minutes to walk to the bus stop. By what time should you get you get up?

Answer:

10:30 am

Explanation:

  1. 11:15 am - 20 min = 10:55 am
  2. 10:55 am - 15 = 10:40 am
  3. 10:40 am - 10 = 10:30 am

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Hey there!

To solve this problem, we must first find the total amount of time it takes for you to get ready in the morning!

20 minutes for shower + 15 minutes to eat + 10 minutes to walk.

This is a total of 20+15+10 or 45 minutes.

For our answer, we have that you should wake up 45 minutes before 11:15, which is 10:30 AM.

Let me know if this helps :)
