This topic focuses on calculating the difference in minutes between two given times, enhancing skills in elapsed time calculation, particularly when considering how much earlier one time is than another. Students are required to compute the time difference accurately by determining how many minutes one designated time is earlier compared to another, developing their ability to work with negative elapsed times. The exercises include comparisons of times listed in a five-minute increment format. This is an advanced practice for students aiming to master time manipulation and interval calculation within a day's context.
