1 hour = 60 minutes
2 3/4 hours = 165 minutes
The mistake is in step 3:
I: −2m =−12 − 2n
II: 2m = 8 + 8n
the student set both right sides of the equations equal (−12 − 2n = 8 + 8n), but the left sides aren't equal: first equation has -2m, second has +2m so the signs of one of the equations must be inverted first

X^2 + y^2 - 2x + 8y - 47 = 0
x^2 + y^2 - 2x + 8y = 47
(x^2 - 2x) + (y^2 + 8y) = 47
(x^2 - 2(1)x) + (y^2 + 2(4)y) = 47
(x^2 - 2(1)x + 1^2) + (y^2 + 2(4)y + 4^2) = 47 + 1^2 + 4^2
(x - 1)^2 + (y + 4)^2 = 64 = 8^2
