Question

Harold has 4 classes each morning. Each class is 1 hour long, and there are 10 minutes between classes. The first class is at 8 A.M. What time does the fourth class end?

Answer 1

The fourth class ends at 12:30 pm

Solution:

Given that Harold has 4 classes each morning

Each class is 1 hour long, and there are 10 minutes between classes

The first class is at 8 A.M

To find: Time at which fourth class ends

Since each is 1 hour long and 10 minutes gap between classes

First class = 8 A.M to 9 A.M

Second class = 9:10 A.M to 10 : 10 AM

Third class = 10 : 20 AM to 11 : 20 AM

Fourth class = 11 : 30 AM to 12 : 30 PM

Thus the fourth class ends at 12:30 pm
