About this worksheet

Elapsed time is how much time passes between a start and an end. Each sheet has six separate problems, one of each kind: finding the end time, the end time after hours and minutes, the start time, the minutes, the hours, and a bus that leaves every so many minutes.

Your child writes the time with a. m. or p. m. , or the number of minutes or hours, on the line.

Common Core standard: 4.MD.A.2

Worked example

A movie starts at 4:15 p.m. and lasts 50 minutes. 4:15 + 45 minutes is 5:00, plus 5 more is 5:05 p.m.

Common mistake

Adding minutes past 60 without changing the hour, so 4:15 + 50 becomes 4:65.

Helpful hint

Count on to the next hour first, then add what is left.
