Question

Kira started a game at 4:37 PM and finished it at 5:16 PM.

How long did it take her? Give your answer in minutes.

Answer 1

39 minutes

Explanation:

First, find how much time passed between 4:37 PM and 5 PM.

Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, subtract 37 from 60:

60 - 37

= 23

There are 16 minutes in between 5 PM and 5:16 PM.

So, add the 23 minutes to 16:

23 + 16

= 39

So, it took her 39 minutes

Answer 2

39

Explanation:

4:37 till 5:00 is 23 minutes.

+ 16 minutes

= 23 + 16
