    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Trevor spent 15 minutes in the shoe store

    25 minutes in the candle store

    And then 10 minutes in the card store

    Trevor left the card store at 10 : 45 am

    Question asked:

    What time did he arrive at the shoe store?

    Solution:

    Time spent in the shoe store = 15 minutes

    Time spent in the candle store = 25 minutes

    Time spent in the card store = 10 minutes

    Total time spent = 15 minutes + 25 minutes + 10 minutes

    = 50 minutes

    Now, As it is given that Trevor left the card store at 10 : 45 am and we have to find What time he arrived at the shoe store, we subtract 50 minutes from 10 : 45,

    Hours Minutes

    10 45

    - 0 50

    ...

    09 55

    ...

    Note : As 45 is less than 50 and cannot be subtracted, taken 1 hour carry out of 10 hours from hours section and as 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes, now it has; 45 + 60 = 105 minutes and by subtracting 50 from 105, we get 55 minutes.

    And out 10 hours, 1 hour is already given carry to the minute section, hence we get 9 hours.

    Thus, he arrived at 09 : 55 am at the shoe store.
