I am a 5 th grader who need some help my mom is blind.
What is the elapsed time:
(1) Between 3:45- 9:00
(2) 6:50-7:00
1) 5hours 15 minutes
2)10 minutes
9:00 = 8:60
8:60 - 3:45 = ?
________________________________
7:00 = 6:60
6:60 - 6:50 = ?
I also answered these earlier Little Lisa. Please draw a clock dial for yourself.
To find the elapsed time, you need to subtract the starting time from the ending time. Let's start with the first question:
(1) Between 3:45-9:00:
Step 1: Note down the starting time: 3:45
Step 2: Note down the ending time: 9:00
Step 3: Subtract the starting time from the ending time.
9:00 - 3:45 = 5:15
Step 4: The elapsed time is 5 hours and 15 minutes.
Now, let's move on to the second question:
(2) Between 6:50-7:00:
Step 1: Note down the starting time: 6:50
Step 2: Note down the ending time: 7:00
Step 3: Subtract the starting time from the ending time.
7:00 - 6:50 = 0:10
Step 4: The elapsed time is 10 minutes.
Remember, when subtracting the hours and minutes, make sure to carry over if necessary. For example, when subtracting 7 minutes from 60 minutes, you would carry over and subtract 1 from the hour.
