Answer:
B. 11:30AM
Explanation:
If he started painting at 9:00 a.m and finished at 10:30 a.m. Then he has been painting for 1 and a half hours. So it took 1.5 hours to paint 35 of the wall, that means he has 25 left to paint. It will take a further 1 hour to complete the painting.
Answer:
B.11:30 AM
Step-by-step explanation:
10:30 - 9:30 = 1 :30 or 1 hr and 30 min
He was able to finish painting 3/5 of it at 10:30 AM it means :
1/5 = 30 mins
3/5 = 90 mins
9:00 AM + 90 mins = 10:30 AM
5/5 = 10:30 AM + 60 mins
5/5 = 11:30 AM
He will finish painting the wall at 11:30 AM
