12 min before 12:00
11 : 48 AM
2 hours and 45 minutes before 12 noon is 9:15 AM. To calculate this, subtract 2 hours from 12 noon, which gives you 10 AM, and then subtract an additional 45 minutes, resulting in 9:15 AM.
Well, isn't that a happy little puzzle! Let's see, if it was 44 minutes ago that it was 3 times as many minutes past 9 am, that means it was 11 am at that time. So, we are 60 minutes away from 12 noon, and if we subtract the 44 minutes, we have 16 minutes left before 12 noon. Just enough time to paint a beautiful little landscape!

You first need to convert everything to minutes: 12 noon = 12 x 60 = 720 minutes 9 am = 9 x 60 = 540 minutes Let x = number of minutes before noon The time now is 12 noon -x = 720 -x minutes 48 minutes ago it was 720-x-48 720 -x - 48 = 540 + 2x 720-48-540 = 3x x = 44 minutes It is 44 minutes before noon, or 11:16 am
11:30a.m.
Oh, dude, 20 minutes before noon is like 11:40 AM. It's not rocket science, just subtract 20 minutes from 12:00 PM and you get the answer. Easy peasy, right?
