Answer:

11 hours and 53 minutes

Explanation:

One way to solve this problem is by converting both times to the 24-hour format. 2:58 pm is the same as 14:58 and 3:05 am is the same as 3:05. Now we can subtract 3:05 from 14:58 and get our answer:

14 - 3 = 11

58 - 5 = 53

Nancy worked for 11 hours and 53 minutes.
