Yvonne drove 11/2 hours to get to the airport. She arrived at 12.10A.M What time did she leave for the airport? Should she have lunch at the airport? why?
One hour earlier would be 11:10 AM. 1 1/2 hours earlier would be 10:40 AM.
It might be a good idea lunch to eat at the airport if she is flying, since domestic airlines no longer serve meals.
To determine the time Yvonne left for the airport, we can subtract the duration of her drive from her arrival time.
Yvonne arrived at 12.10 A.M.
She drove for 11/2 hours, which is equivalent to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
To subtract 1 hour and 30 minutes from 12.10 A.M., we can use the 24-hour clock system.
12.10 A.M. can be written as 00:10 in the 24-hour clock system.
Subtracting 1 hour and 30 minutes from 00:10 gives us 22:40 (10:40 P.M.). Therefore, Yvonne left for the airport at 10:40 P.M.
Regarding whether she should have lunch at the airport, it depends on her preferences and schedule. Some factors to consider are:
1. Time of the flight: If she has an early morning flight, it might be more important to have a good breakfast before leaving for the airport rather than having lunch.
2. Travel duration: If her flight is short or she has purchased a meal on the flight, she might not need to have lunch at the airport.
3. Availability of options: If there are limited dining options at the airport or she has specific dietary restrictions, it might be better to pack her own meal or eat beforehand.
Ultimately, the decision should be based on Yvonne's personal preferences, the flight details, and the options available at the airport.
