Example Question #23 : How To Add

Andy and his friend left school at 3:00. They walked for 10 minutes to a coffee shop, stayed to have their drinks for half an hour, and then spent 20 minutes walking to another friend's house. They stayed at this friend's house for 40 minutes and then left. What time was it when they left their friend's house?

Possible Answers:

5:40

4:00

4:40

3:40

Correct answer:

4:40

Explanation:

After school, Andy and his friend walked for 10 minutes to a coffee shop, stayed to have their drinks for half an hour, and then spent 20 minutes walking to another friend's house. They stayed at this friend's house for 40 minutes and then left.

This means that the total time (in minutes) they spent on their after school activities so far is equal to 10+30+20+40=100 .

100 minutes is equal to one hour and 40 minutes.

1 hour and 40 minutes past 3:00 is 4:40.

Therefore, 4:40 is the correct answer.
