I'll be glad to check your answer.

What is the elapsed time? 25 minutes

Explanation why your answer is correct: ?

Right.

6:10 = 5:70

5:70 - 5:45 = 0:25

To calculate the elapsed time, we need to find the difference between the starting time and the ending time. In this case, the starting time is 5:45 p.m. and the ending time is 6:10 p.m.

First, let's convert the starting and ending time to a 24-hour format for easier calculation.

5:45 p.m. in a 24-hour format is 17:45.
6:10 p.m. in a 24-hour format is 18:10.

Now, subtract the starting time from the ending time:

18:10 - 17:45 = 0:25

The elapsed time is 0 hours and 25 minutes. So, the correct answer is 25 minutes.
