This math topic focuses on calculating the elapsed time in minutes between two given times, specifically assessing how many minutes earlier one time is than another. These problems require students to find the difference in time with a potential negative result, indicating the time of the second clock is before the first. The questions are multiple-choice, improving skills in time calculation and understanding increments in minutes. This forms a part of more advanced studies on elapsed time and offers practice in dealing with negative time differences.
