Question

It's 3.15 pm and Adam needs to post the parcel. The journey to the post office takes 36 minutes. Adam queues in the post office for 13 minutes. Give your answer in 24-hour clock format. What time does Adam get back home? :

Answer 1

Answer:

16:40

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 3:15 PM to 24-hour time, we remember that PM is after noon.  This means we add 12 to 3 for the hour; this gives us 15:15.

Add 36 minutes to this; we get 15:51.

Add 13 minutes to this; it takes 9 minutes to get to 16:00, which leaves 4 minutes; this gives us 16:04.

Adding 36 minutes to this, we have 16:40.

Answer 2

3:15 +36 minutes =3:51
3:51 +13 minutes= 4:04
4:04+36 minutes = 4:40


answer is
4: 40 pm
