Question

During the summer vacation Natalie made three hikes. The first took her 2 days 45 minutes, the second 1 day 22 hours 45 minutes and the third 2 days 7 hours 20 minutes.

What was Natalie's total hiking time for the summer vacation?

5 days 6 hours 10 minutes.
5 days 5 hours 50 minutes.
6 days 5 hours 10 minutes.
6 days 6 hours 50 minutes.

Answer 1

Answer: 6 days 6 hours 50 minuets.

Explanation:

Separate each unit of time and add them up:

5 days , 29 hours, 110 minuets.

since there are 24 hours in a day, you will add one to days and subtract 24 from hours.

6 days, 5 hours and 110 minuets.

60 minuets are in an hour, to simplify it, you subtract 60 from 110 mins and carry that 1 to hours.

6 days, 5 hours and 50 mins.
