You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1 hour = 60 min\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3/4 hour = (3/4)*60 min\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3/4 hour = 45 min\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 8 3/4 hr = 8 hr + 3/4 hr = 8 hr + 45 min\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now add the two times (8:30 and 8 hr, 45 min)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "  1\r\n" );
document.write( "  8:30\r\n" );
document.write( "+ 8:45\r\n" );
document.write( "-------\r\n" );
document.write( " 17:15\r\n" );
document.write( "

\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "which translates to 17:15 - 12:00 = 5:15 pm\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So she finished work at 5:15 pm \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
