Roshel usually takes a bus from her home to school. If she leaves home at 05 00, she will reach school at 06 38. Last week, a new MRT line has opened and she can take the train directly from home to school instead. This will shorten her journey by 13 min.
- How long does Roshel take to go school by the new MRT line?
- Roshel spent the next 3 h 45 min in school before dismissal. If Roshel started school at 09 05, at what time was she dismissed from school? Give your answer in the 12-hour clock format.
(a)
From 05 00 to 06 38: 1 h 38 min
Duration of Roshel's journey to go to school by the new MRT line
= 1 h 38 min - 13 min
= 98 min - 13 min
= 85 min
= 1 h 25 min
(b)
3 h 45 min after 09 05 = 12 50
12 50 = 12.50 p.m.
Time that Roshel was dismissed from school: 12.50 p.m.
Answer(s): (a) 1 h 25 min; (b) 12.50 p.m.
