Complete the table.

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
\begin{tabular}{c}
60 minutes \\
earlier
\end{tabular} & Time now & \begin{tabular}{c}
30 minutes \\
later
\end{tabular} \\
\hline
2 o'clock & 3 o'clock & 3:30 \\
\hline
3:30 & 4:30 & 5 o'clock \\
\hline
\end{tabular}



Answer :

Certainly! Let's complete the given table by determining the missing entry based on the provided times.

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline \begin{tabular}{c} 60 minutes \\ earlier \end{tabular} & Time now & \begin{tabular}{c} 30 minutes \\ later \end{tabular} \\ \hline 3 o'clock & half past 4 & o'clock \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

Here's a step-by-step explanation on how the times correlate with each other:

1. 60 minutes earlier: The entry `3 o'clock` indicates what the time would have been if we go 60 minutes back from the current time.

2. Time now: The current time is indicated as `half past 4`. This means it is 4:30.

3. 30 minutes later: To find this, we add 30 minutes to the current time of 4:30.

Now we will complete the table based on these explanations:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline \begin{tabular}{c} 60 minutes \\ earlier \end{tabular} & Time now & \begin{tabular}{c} 30 minutes \\ later \end{tabular} \\ \hline 3 o'clock & half past 4 & 5 o'clock \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

So the completed table is:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline \begin{tabular}{c} 60 minutes \\ earlier \end{tabular} & Time now & \begin{tabular}{c} 30 minutes \\ later \end{tabular} \\ \hline 3 o'clock & half past 4 & 5 o'clock \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

In summary:
- 60 minutes earlier than `half past 4` is `3 o'clock`.
- The current time is `half past 4`.
- 30 minutes later than `half past 4` is `5 o'clock`.
