Finding the Duration of Time
a. Duration between 5:15am and 11pm:
To find the duration between 5:15am and 11pm, we need to calculate the difference in hours and minutes between the two times.
First, we subtract the hours:
11pm - 5am = 6 hours
Next, we subtract the minutes:
60 minutes - 15 minutes = 45 minutes
Therefore, the duration between 5:15am and 11pm is 6 hours and 45 minutes.
b. Duration between 8am and 2pm:
To find the duration between 8am and 2pm, we again need to calculate the difference in hours and minutes.
First, we subtract the hours:
2pm - 8am = 6 hours
Since we are looking for the duration between two times within the same day, we do not need to consider the minutes.
Therefore, the duration between 8am and 2pm is 6 hours.
c. Duration between 0930 hours and 2245 hours:
To find the duration between 0930 hours and 2245 hours, we need to calculate the difference in hours and minutes.
First, we subtract the hours:
2245 hours - 0930 hours = 1315 hours
Next, we subtract the minutes:
60 minutes - 30 minutes = 30 minutes
Therefore, the duration between 0930 hours and 2245 hours is 1315 hours and 30 minutes.
d. Duration between 10:45pm and 1:30am:
To find the duration between 10:45pm and 1:30am, we need to consider that the times are on different days.
First, we calculate the duration until midnight:
12am - 10:45pm = 1 hour and 15 minutes
Next, we calculate the duration from midnight to 1:30am:
1:30am - 12am = 1 hour and 30 minutes
Finally, we add the durations together:
1 hour and 15 minutes + 1 hour and 30 minutes = 2 hours and 45 minutes
Therefore, the duration between 10:45pm and 1:30am is 2 hours and 45 minutes.
