A small town emergency room admits a patient on August 3 at 10:42 P.M. and another patient at 1:19 A.M. on August 4. How much time has elapsed between admissions?
- 1 hour 19 minutes
- 1 hour 37 minutes
- 2 hours 23 minutes
- 2 hours 37 minutes
- 3 hours 23 minutes
Answer(s): D
Explanation:
Between 10:42 and 12:42, two hours have elapsed. From 12:42 to 1:00, another 18 minutes have elapsed (60 42 = 18). Then from 1:00 to 1:19, there is another 19 minutes. 2 hours + 18 minutes + 19 minutes = 2 hours, 37 minutes.
