Question

Paul, Joey, and Matt have to catch the train back to school at 5:00pm. They want to tour the air and space museum for 1 hour and 45 minutes, then spend 30 minutes in the gift shop and save 20 minutes to walk to the train. What time should they start the tour?

Answer 1

2:25pm

Explanation:

The time given is 5pm to catch the train back to school;

Amount of time for the tour = 1hr 45min

= 105min

Amount of time at gift shop = 30min

Amount of time to save = 20min

Total time = 105min + 30min + 20min = 155min

So;

Total time = 2hr 35min

So;

5pm - 2hr 35min = 2:25pm
