How to add Hours Minutes and Seconds?<\/h3>\n
Follow the simple steps provided below to add hours, minutes and seconds. They are along the lines<\/p>\n
- \n
- Add the hours<\/li>\n
- Add the minutes and If the number of minutes is 60 or more do the following:\n
- \n
- Subtract 60 from the number of minutes.<\/li>\n
- Increase the number of hours by one.<\/li>\n
- Repeat this process if the number of minutes is still 60 or more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- If the number of seconds is 60 or more than 60 then do the following:\n
- \n
- Subtract 60 from the number of seconds.<\/li>\n
- Increase the number of minutes by one.<\/li>\n
- Repeat this process if the number of seconds is still 60 or more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Addition of Hours Minutes and Seconds Examples<\/h3>\n
Example 1:
\n<\/strong>Add 2 hours 25 minutes and 1 hour 15 minutes?
\nSolution:<\/strong>
\nStep 1: Add the hours together, we get 2 + 1 = 3 hours
\nStep 2: Add the minutes together, we get 25 + 15 = 40 minutes
\nTherefore, the result of the addition is 3 hours 40 minutes<\/p>\nExample\u00a0 2:<\/strong>
\nAdd 3 hours 35 minutes 50 seconds and 2 hours 40 minutes 34 seconds.
\nSolution:<\/strong>
\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Addition-of-Time-Example-1-300x170.png\")
\nStep 1: Add the hours together, we get 3 + 2 =5 hours
\nStep 2: Add the minutes together, we get 35 + 40 = 75 minutes,
\nAs the number of minutes is more than 60, subtract 60 minutes from that we get 15 minutes and increase the number of hours by 1 i.e 5 + 1 = 6 hours
\nStep 3: Add the second together, we get 50 + 34 = 84 seconds.
\nAs the number of seconds is more than 60, subtract 60 seconds from that we get 24 seconds and increase the number of minutes by 1 i.e 15 + 1 = 16 minutes
\nTherefore, the result is 6 hours 16 minutes 24 seconds.<\/p>\nExample 3:<\/strong>
\nAdd 5 hours 45 minutes and 2 hour 35 minutes.
\nSolution:<\/strong>
\nStep 1: Add the hours together, we get 5+ 2 = 7 hours
\nStep 2: Add the minutes together, we get 45 + 35 = 80 minutes
\nAs there is a number of minutes is more than 60, subtract 60 minutes from that we get 20 minutes and increase the number of hours by 1 i.e 7 + 1 = 8 hours
\nTherefore, the result of the addition is 8 hours 20 minutes<\/p>\nExample 4:<\/strong>
\nAdd 5 hours 13 minutes 56 seconds and 2 hours 55 minutes.
\nSolution:<\/strong>
\nStep 1: Add the hours together, we get 5 + 2 =7 hours
\nStep 2: Add the minutes together, we get 13 + 55 = 68 minutes,
\nAs the number of minutes is more than 60, subtract 60 minutes from that we get 8 minutes and increase the number of hours by 1 i.e 7 + 1 = 8 hours
\nStep 3: Add the second together, now there are no seconds mentioned in the question so consider 0 seconds for that, we get 56 + 0 = 56 seconds.
\nTherefore, the result is 8 hours 8 minutes 56 seconds.<\/p>\nExample 5:<\/strong>
\nA bus leaves for Hyderabad at 1:30 p.m. It takes 2 hr. 25 min to reach there. At what time will it reach Hyderabad?
\nSolution:<\/strong>
\nAdd the time duration to the given time i.e
\nBy adding hours together, we get 1 + 2 = 3 hours and by adding minutes together we get 30 +25 = 55 minutes.
\nTherefore, By 3:55 p.m the bus will reach Hyderabad.<\/p>\nExample 6:<\/strong>
\nRob travelled 4 hr. 45 min. by bus and 2 hr. 25 min. by train to Bangalore. Calculate the time he spent travelling to Bangalore.
\nSolution:<\/strong>
\nAdd both the time duration of travelling i.e
\nBy adding hours together, we get 4 + 2 = 6 hours and by adding minutes together we get 45 +25 = 70 minutes.
\nAs the number of minutes exceeded 60, subtract 60 from that we get 10 minutes and increase by 1 to the hours i.e 6 + 1 = 7
\nTherefore, the Total time he spent travelling is 7 hours 10 minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Learn how the Addition of Hours, Minutes and Seconds will work.
