------------------------------------------------ Thomas arrived at the library at 11:45 AM. He left 1 hour and 40 minutes later. At what time did Thomas leave the library?

Answer :

Answer:

At 1:25 P.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas arrived at the library at 11:45 AM and he left 1 hour 40 minutes later.

So, 1 hour 40 minutes is equivalent to (60 + 40) = 100 minutes.

Now, after 15 minutes, the time will be 12 P.M.

So, remaining (100 - 15) = 85 minutes i.e. 1 hour and 25 minutes the time will be 1:25 P.M.

Therefore, Thomas leaves the library at 1:25 P.M. (Answer)

Thomas left the library at 1:25 PM after spending 1 hour and 40 minutes since his arrival at 11:45 AM.

To determine the time at which Thomas left the library, we need to add 1 hour and 40 minutes to 11:45 AM.

  1. Start with 11:45 AM.
  2. Add 1 hour: 11:45 AM + 1 hour = 12:45 PM.
  3. Now add 40 minutes: 12:45 PM + 40 minutes = 1:25 PM.

Therefore, Thomas left the library at 1:25 PM.
