Question

each day, Jason walks to his office at a constant rate. one third of the way he passes a bank and three-fourths of the way to work he passes a store. at the bank his watch reads 6:52 am and at the store it reads 7:02 am. at what time was jason halfway to his offic?

Answer 1

3/4 - 1/3 = 5/12
7:02 - 6:52 = 10 min

1/2 - 5/12 = 1/12
1/12 is 1/5 of the way from bank to store
so, that's 2 minutes.

At 6:54 he's halfway to work.
