SUBTRACTION OF TIME
There are some subtraction method of time which are given below for better understand, usually for this kind of subtraction normal subtraction method is follows but there are some exception also-
Example.1) Subtract 3 hours 35 minutes 27 seconds from 8 hours 52 minutes 43 seconds
Ans.) 8 hours 52 minutes 43 seconds
_ 3 hours 35 minutes 27 seconds
-------------------------------------
5 hours 17 minutes 16 seconds (In this case subtract hours, minutes, and seconds separately) (Ans.)
Example.2) Subtract 4 hours 55 minutes 43 seconds from 6 hours 42 minutes 35 seconds
Ans.) 6 hours 42 minutes 35 seconds
_ 4 hours 55 minutes 43 seconds
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
( Here you can observe 35 & 42 is less than 43 & 55 respectively, so 6 hours 42 minutes 35 seconds = 5 hours 101 minutes 95 seconds, re-group hours, minutes & seconds, 6 hours = 5 hours 60 minutes and 42 minutes = 41 minutes 60 seconds. Now add 60 minutes and 60 seconds to the seconds and minute column. So, now we have - 6 hours 42 minutes 35 seconds = 5 hours 101 minutes 95 seconds.
So, now subtract 4 hours 55 minutes 43 seconds from the new form of transform time.
5 hours 101 minutes 95 seconds
_ 4 hours 55 minutes 43 seconds
------------------------------------
1 hour 46 minutes 52 seconds ( In this case subtract hours, minutes, and seconds separately )
(Ans.)
Example.3) Subtract 3 hours 58 minutes from 6 hours 42 minutes.
Ans.) 6 hours 42 minutes
_ 3 hours 58 minutes
------------------------------
-------------------------------
( here we can observe 42 is less than 58, regroup hours and minutes. 6 hours = 5 hours 60 minutes, now add 60 minutes to the minutes column , so, we have 6 hours 42 minutes = 5 hours 102 minutes now subtract from obtained new time format
5 hours 102 minutes
_ 3 hours 58 minutes
--------------------------
2 hours 44 minutes (In this case subtract hours and minutes separately)
(Ans.)
