1. There are 32 hours between noon on Monday and 8 pm on Tuesday.
2. Since the clock lost 128 seconds in these 32 hours, you can divide
128 by 32 to find out how how many seconds it lost in one hour. 128
divided by 32 is 4.
3. If the clock lost 4 seconds in an hour, then it must have lost 2
seconds in a half hour (4 divided by 2 equals 2)
so the answer is 2
A clock was exactly on time at noon on Monday. At 8 Pm. on Tuesday it was 128 seconds slow. At that same rate, how much did it lose in 1/2 hour?
