Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Guven:

Time of bike ride = 3:27 PM

Time of dinner = 5:45 PM

Bike ride = 85 minutes

Time that bike ride ended = 3:27 + 85

= 3:27 + 1:25

= 4:52 PM

duration left between after the ride and dinner time = 5:45 - 4:52

= 45 + 8 minutes

= 53 minutes

Answer 2

There are no 858585 minutes between 3:27 PM and 5:45 PM when Payton's family eats dinner, as this would mean that Payton goes on over 596 day bike ride, which is unrealistic.

The question would be realistic, if it was:

Payton leaves to go on an 85 minute bike ride at 3:27 PM.

Payton's family eats dinner at 5:45 PM. How much time will Payton have between finishing her bike ride and eating dinner?

Answer:

Payton has 53 minutes between finishing her bike ride and eating dinner

Step-by-step explanation:

- Payton rides for 85 minutes.

If she starts by 3:27 PM, she would finish by 4:52 PM.

- Dinner is by 5:45 PM.

We are required to find how much time is between 4:52 PM and 5:45 PM.

Subtract:

.........H...............M

.........05............45

.........04............52

.................................

.........00............53

Payton has 53 minutes
