- It takes 15 minutes to walk back home
- 1:13 + 15 = 1:28

Option 2:

12:47 (13 minutes to 1:00)

- Ellen spent 13 minutes in the store
- She left the store at 1:13 (1:00 + 15 minutes to get there)
- It takes 15 minutes to walk back home
- 1:13 + 15 = 1:28
- To get the time Ellen returned home, we subtract 15 minutes from 1:13
- 1:13 - 0:15 = 12:47
