If Tommy started work at 7 a. m. and left at 2:45p. m., how many hours should

he record for the day on his time card?

7 hours (if the question asked us how many hours he spent without adding the value of the minutes).

Explanation:

From 7 a. m. to 2 pm its 7 hours.

The remainder is 45 minutes.

7 hours + 45 minutes.

If it's in hours it'll be 7 hours. If the question asked hours and minutes it would be 7 hours and 45 minutes.

7.75

Explanation:

As much as it makes sense to say forty five minutes ... it is actually seventy five. Also besides i just took the quiz.
