Question

What time is 5 3/4 hours after 11:32 pm? Please show work, thank you.

Answer 1

we have to first convert fraction of hours into minutes

1 hour is equivalent to 60 minutes

then 3/4 hour is - 3/4 of 60

when the of function is used we have to multiply the 2 numbers

then $\frac{3}{4} * 60 = \frac{3*60}{4} = \frac{180}{4} = 45$

3/4 of an hour is equivalent to 45 minutes

then we have to add 5 hours and 45 minutes to 11.32 pm

add 5.45 to 11.32

11.32

5.45 +

-------

16.77

then its 16 hours and 77 minutes

an hour has only 60 minutes so we subtract 60 minutes from 77 minutes and add that hour to 16 hours

16 hours + 1 = 17 hours 

77 minutes - 60 minutes = 17 minutes

17 hours 17 minutes

time is given in pm therefore its a 12 hour clock

so we have to subtract 12 hours from 17 hours 17 minutes

17.17 hours - 12 hours = 5.17

the new time is 5.17 am of the next day

Answer 2

Well, the first thing you should know is that 3/4 = 45 minutes.

11 to 12
12 to 1
1 to 2
2 to 3
3 to 4

4:32 am + 45 min. = 5:17 am is your answer
