go back to school for a band
concert, which starts at
7:00PM. It takes her 10
minutes to get to school from
her house. She has about 30
minutes of homework to do.
When she finishes her
homework, she will spend
about 25 minutes eating
dinner
What time should she start
her homework, in order to
get to the school at 7:00?

Answer 1

5:55 pm

Explanation:

30+25+10=65

or

1 hour and 5 minutes

Answer 2

Sophia should start her homework at 5:55

Explanation:

If it takes her 10 minutes to go to school, 30 minutes to do her homework, and 25 minutes to eat dinner, you should add those numbers together to get 65 because then you can subtract 65 minutes from 7:00 so you get the time she needs to start her homework in order to get to school at 7:00. So basically 10+30+25=65 and then 65 minutes subtracted from 7:00 is 5:55.

I hope this helps you :D
