A film starts at 7.45 pm. The film lasts 98 minutes. What time does the film finish?
The correct answer and explanation is:
The film finishes at 9:23 pm.
To calculate this, break the total time of 98 minutes into smaller chunks. First, add 60 minutes (1 hour) to the starting time of 7:45 pm.
7:45 pm + 60 minutes = 8:45 pm.
Now, there are 38 minutes remaining (98 minutes – 60 minutes = 38 minutes). Add these 38 minutes to 8:45 pm.
8:45 pm + 38 minutes = 9:23 pm.
Thus, the film finishes at 9:23 pm.
