Work out the difference between 5 and 2.3, like I just said.
OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):
2.7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yep, and .7 of an hour is how many minutes?
OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

No, for starters we know it's going to be more than 30 because that's .5 of an hour. \[0.7\times 60=?\]
OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):
42 minutes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Exactly, and that''s hour answer: 2.7 hours or 2h42m
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's our*
OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

They're both correct :)
OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):
oih so how do i explain it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well he spent 5 hours outside and 2.3 playing basketball, so he must've spent 5-2.3=2.7 hours (or 2h42m) doing nothing.
