    They arrived at am and left at pm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    What do you need to find?

    We need to find the time when Lea and her father arrived at the scenic overlook and the time when they left.

    What do you need to find first?

    First we need to find the exact minutes they arrived and left. Then we have to determine whether it was am or pm

    Steps:

    1. Noting the time they arrived

    They arrived 15 minutes before noon

    2. Determining whether it was am or pm

    Noon is 12 pm by convention

    Midnight is 12 am by convention

    3. Calculating the minutes for exact time

    Each hour has 60 minutes:

    60 - 15 = 45

    4. Determining the time (am or pm) after subtracting 15 minutes

    which means they arrived at 11:45 am (am is used for time before 12 at noon)

    5. They left 12 minutes after the noon:

    Noon time is 12 pm

    6. Adding 12 minutes to 12pm

    The exact time becomes 12:12pm
