Given:
An exam starts at 10:10 and lasts for 75 minutes.
To find:
The time when the exam end.
Solution:
We have,
Starting time = 10:10
Exam duration = 75 minutes
First we will divide the 75 minutes in two parts 50 minutes and 25 minutes.
We know that 50 minutes after 10:10 is 11:00 and 25 minutes after 11:00 is 11:25. So,
10:10 + 75 minutes = 10:10 + 50 minutes +25 minutes)
= (10:10 + 50 minutes) +25 minutes
= 11:00 +25 minutes
= 11:25
Therefore, the exam ends at 11:25.
