To calculate the duration of the trip, we need to subtract the departure time from the return time.

Departure time: Tuesday 7h 45
Return time: Tuesday 13h 10

To make the calculation easier, let's convert both times to minutes.

Departure time in minutes: (Tuesday * 24 * 60) + (7 * 60) + 45 = 0 + 420 + 45 = 465 minutes
Return time in minutes: (Tuesday * 24 * 60) + (13 * 60) + 10 = 0 + 780 + 10 = 790 minutes

Now, let's find out the duration of the trip by subtracting the departure time from the return time.

Duration of the trip: 790 minutes - 465 minutes = 325 minutes.

Now, let's convert the duration back to days, hours, and minutes.

325 minutes can be divided into 5 hours and 25 minutes (since 60 minutes make 1 hour).

Therefore, you were gone for:
5 hours + 25 minutes = 5h 25 minutes.

To summarize, you were gone for 5 hours and 25 minutes.
