Examples of Time Measurement
1. If Abdul started working on the computer at 11 in the morning and finished his work at 3:30 in the afternoon, how long did he work?
Method 1: From 11 in the morning to 12 noon, it is 1 hour. From 12 noon to 3:30 in the afternoon, it is 3 hours and 30 minutes. Therefore, the total time is 4 hours and 30 minutes.
Method 2: According to the 24-hour clock, 11 o'clock in the morning is 11:00, and 3:30 in the afternoon is 15:30
| Hr | Min |
|
15 |
30 00 |
| 4 | 30 |
Abdul worked for a total of 4 hours and thirty minutes, or four and a half hours.
2. Add: 4 hours 30 min + 2 hours 45 min
| Hr | Min |
| 4 +2 |
30 45 |
| 6 | 75 |
| 7 | 15 |
75 min = 1 hour 15 min
3. Subtract: 5 hr 30 min – 2 hr 45 min
45 minutes cannot be subtracted from 30 minutes.
Therefore, we borrow 1 hour and convert it into 60 minutes for the subtraction.
| Hr | Min |
| 4 | 60+30 |
| `\cancel(5)` – 2 |
30 45 |
| 2 | 45 |
