Answer 1

10:00 am EST in Ohio

Explanation:

Using the 50 States Time zones attached in the image below.

Chance who lives in Texas has a Time zone of CST (central standard time), while his cousin who lives in Ohio has a Time zone of EST(eastern standard time).

So if it is 5 pm in CST, it will be 6 pm in EST.

Given that;

Chance wants to wish his cousin in Ohio at 9:00 am CST, then the time it will be at his cousin's house when Chance calls to say happy birthday will be:

9:00 am + 1 = 10 :00 am EST in Ohio
