5. Start time: 7:30 P.M.
Elapsed time: ____________
End time: 9:29 P.M.
What is your answer?
2/39
1. Start Time: 4:30 p.m. End Time: 7:45 p.m.
To find the elapsed time, subtract the start time from the end time.
In this case, the start time is 7:30 P.M. and the end time is 9:29 P.M.
To calculate the elapsed time, we need to subtract the hours, minutes, and any potential differences in AM/PM.
Let's break it down step-by-step:
1) Start by subtracting the minutes: 29 - 30 = -1
Since there is a negative result, we need to borrow 1 hour from the hours part.
2) Now subtract the hours: 9 - 7 = 2
3) Finally, consider the changes in AM/PM. Since we are going from P.M. to P.M., there is no change.
So, the elapsed time is 2 hours and 1 minute.
Therefore, the elapsed time is 2 hours and 1 minute.
