On weeks days, Aaron gets home from school at 4:30 p. M., and his bedtime is at 9:00 p. M. If he spends 90 minutes playing football, 35 minutes eating dinner, and 1 hour and 45 minutes doing homework, how much time after school will Aaron have left to play video games?

40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Time at which Aaron gets home from school = 4:30 PM

Bedtime for Aaron = 9:00 PM

Total available for Aaron = 9:00 - 4:30 = 4 hr 30 minutes

To convert minutes to hours, we need to divide by 60.

Time spent in playing football = 90 minutes =

Time spent eating dinner = 35 minutes

Time spent in doing homework = 1 hr 45 minutes

Total time spent = 1 hr 30 minutes + 35 minutes + 1 hr 45 minutes = 2 hr 110 minutes = 3 hr 50 minutes

Time left for Aaron to play video games = 4 hr 30 minutes - 3 hr 50 minutes = 40 minutes

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
