    The total distance is given as 18 miles

    she traveled at 45 miles per hour for 20 minutes

    20 minutes = 20 / 60 = 1/3 of an hour

    45 miles per hour x 1/3 of an hour = 15 miles driven

    18 total miles - 15 miles driven = 3 miles left

    she then drove at 20 miles per hour

    20 miles per hour / 60 minutes per hour = 1/3 mile per minute = 1 mile every 3 minutes

    3 miles x 3 minutes = 9 minutes to drive the final 3 miles

    20 minutes + 9 minutes = 29 total minutes to drive to work

    she left at 7:15

    7:15 + 20 minutes = 7:35 am she arrived at work
