stamp · Answer

Identify.

Start time = 7:30 am

End time = 2:50 pm

Start time + Travel time = End time

Find Travel time.

Start time + Travel time = End time

Travel time = End time - Start time

Substitute.

Travel time = End time - Start time

Travel time = 2:50 pm - 7:30 am

It might help to think of the times as 24 hours instead of 12 hours.

ex. 2:50pm = 14:50

7:30am = 7:30

So 

Travel time = 14:50 - 7:30
