A rocket is scheduled to launch from a command center in 3.75 hours. What time is it now?

Launch time: 11:20 A.M.

Answer :

0.75 is actually three quarters. Three quarters of an hour is equal to 45 minutes.

--------------

In Time (Avoid Using Ordinary Mathematics):

11:20 AM - 3:00 hrs - 45 mins

= 8:20 AM - 45 mins

= 8:20 AM - 20 mins - 25 mins

= 8:00 AM - 25 mins

= 7:35 AM

----------------

Answer:

7:35 AM
