Q. Now the time is 4:45 pm will it be after 2 hours nad 25 minutes?
Assume current time: Let's assume the current time is X hours and Y minutes. To find the time after 2 hours and 25 minutes, we need to add 2 hours to X and 25 minutes to Y.
Add 2 hours and 25 minutes: If the current minutes Y plus 25 results in a sum of 60 or more, we need to convert the excess minutes into hours and add it to the current hours X.
Convert excess minutes to hours: Since we don't have the current time, we cannot perform the actual addition. However, the process would involve adding 2 to the hour part and 25 to the minute part, adjusting for any overflow of minutes into hours.
Perform addition: The final step would be to write down the new time, which would be (X+2) hours and (Y+25) minutes, adjusting for any overflow from minutes to hours as mentioned in the previous steps.
