Question

Answer 1

Answer:

Jasmine needs to put the meal in the oven at 6:55 pm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jasmine wants to eat her meal at 8:00 p.m.

Time taken by meal to cook =  65 min.

∴ Jasmine need to put the meal in the oven 65 min. before 8:00 pm.

∵ 60 mins = 1 hour

∴ 65 mins = 1 hour 05 mins

∴ We subtract 1:05 mins from 8:00 pm to get the required time.

∴ 8:00 - 1:05 = 6:55 pm

Therefore at 6:55 pm Jasmine needs to put the meal in the oven.

Answer 2

Answer:

She needs to put the meal in the oven on or before 6:55pm.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Jasmine wants to eat at 8:00pm.

The time she needs to cook her meal = 65 mins.

To find the time she needs to put the meal in the oven, we have to subtract 65 mins from 8:00pm

65 mins = 1 hour and 5 mins.

So, 1 hour before 8:00pm is 7:00pm.

5 mins before 7:00pm is 6:55pm.

Hence, she needs to put the meal in the oven on or before 6:55pm so that she can't miss 800pm to eat.
