Given:

Sue wakes up at 6:20 A.M. and jogs for 45 minutes. She then spends 55 minutes dressing for school before she catches the bus.

Determine the time when Sue gets on the bus.

Solution:

In order to determine the time that Sue got on the bus, we simply need to add first 45 minutes and 55 minutes, then add the time to 6:20 am.

= 45 minutes + 55 minutes

= 100 minutes or 1 hour and 40 minutes

Add 1 hour and 40 minutes to 6:20 AM.

= 8:00 AM

Final answer:

Sue got on the bus at 8:00 AM
