Question

Ram’s school lasts for 6 hours and 30 minutes, divided into 2 equal parts with a 30-minute recess in between. If his school starts at 8:00 am, at what time does the recess end?

Answer 1

Total time for which the school lasts = 6 hours 30 minutes
Recess time = 30 minutes
So, total duration of classes = 6 hours 30 minutes - 30 minutes
= 6 hours
Duration of classes in first half = 6 $÷$ 2
= 3 hours
Time at which at the recess ends = 08:00 + 03:00 + 0:30
= 11:30 am.
