Time Measurement

Learning Outcomes
At the end of the lesson, the student should be able to:
a. Convert one time measure into another
b. Solve word problems involving time measurement

Time provides us with a measure of change by putting dates on moments, fixing the durations of events, and specifying
which events happen before which other events.

In converting time from one unit to another, the rule is:

 From bigger to smaller unit multiply


 From smaller to bigger unit divide

Example 1: How many minutes are in 3 hours? (hrs min)

60 mins .
Solution: 1 hour = 60 mins., 3 hrs. x = 180 mins.
1 hr .
Example 2: How many hours are in one-half day?( day hr)

24 hrs .
Solution: 24 hrs = 1 day, 12 hours = ½ day, 1.5 day x = 36 hrs.
1 day
3
Example 3: How many seconds are in 4 minutes?(mins. sec.)
4
60 sec
Solution: 60 secs. =1 min., 4.75 mins. x = 285 secs.
1 min
Example 3: Roger started doing his project at 5:40 pm and finished it at 7:45 pm. How long did he do his project?

Solution: hour minute

Time Finished: 7 45

Time Started: 5 40

2 5

Therefore, the amount of time spent doing the project is 2 hours and 5 mins.

Example 5: Genebibe went driving. She left at 10:30 am. And arrived at 3:15 pm. How long did she drive?

Solution: hour minute

Time Arrived: 3 15

Time Left: 10 30

Observe that the number of minutes in the minuend is smaller than that of the subtrahend. In this case, rename the 3
hours as 2 hours and 60 minutes and regroup the 60 minutes with 15 minutes to make 75 minutes. And since the
number of hours in the minuend is smaller than that in the subtrahend, we can always add 12 hours due to the fact that
time is modulo 12. It means that the number of hours in the minuend will become 14. Then proceed to subtraction.

Solution: hour minute

Time Arrived: 14 75

Time Left: 10 30

Time Traveled: 4 45

It means that Genebibe drove for 4 hrs. and 45 minutes.
