I left home at 06:45 and arrived at school at 07:25. How long did it take me to get there?

Here are the solutions to the time duration problems.

5. What is the duration from clock 1 to clock 2?

• a)

  • Clock 1 shows 8:00.
  • Clock 2 shows 8:30.
  • Duration: $8:30 - 8:00 = 30$ minutes.
  • Answer: $\boxed{\text{30 minutes}}$

• b)

  • Clock 1 shows 12:00.
  • Clock 2 shows 1:00.
  • Duration: $1:00 - 12:00 = 1$ hour.
  • Answer: $\boxed{\text{1 hour}}$

• c)

  • Clock 1 shows 2:15.
  • Clock 2 shows 3:25.
  • Duration: $3:25 - 2:15 = 1$ hour and 10 minutes.
  • Answer: $\boxed{\text{1 hour 10 minutes}}$

• d)

  • Clock 1 shows 10:45.
  • Clock 2 shows 11:55.
  • Duration: $11:55 - 10:45 = 1$ hour and 10 minutes.
  • Answer: $\boxed{\text{1 hour 10 minutes}}$

• e)

  • Clock 1 shows 3:35.
  • Clock 2 shows 4:45.
  • Duration: $4:45 - 3:35 = 1$ hour and 10 minutes.
  • Answer: $\boxed{\text{1 hour 10 minutes}}$

• f)

  • Clock 1 shows 7:50.
  • Clock 2 shows 8:10.
  • Duration: From 7:50 to 8:00 is 10 minutes. From 8:00 to 8:10 is 10 minutes.
  • Total duration: $10 + 10 = 20$ minutes.
  • Answer: $\boxed{\text{20 minutes}}$

6. I left home at 06:45 and arrived at school at 07:25. How long did it take me to get there?

• Step 1: Calculate the time from 06:45 to the next full hour (07:00). $$60 \text{ minutes} - 45 \text{ minutes} = 15 \text{ minutes}$$
• Step 2: Calculate the time from 07:00 to 07:25. $$25 \text{ minutes}$$
• Step 3: Add the durations from Step 1 and Step 2. $$15 \text{ minutes} + 25 \text{ minutes} = 40 \text{ minutes}$$
• Answer: It took 40 minutes to get to school. $$\boxed{\text{40 minutes}}$$
