: Hi I'm trying to help my 4th graded with the elapse time in airline flights
: how much time has elapsed if your flight departs San Fransico at 7:07 am and arrives in Denver at 10:00 am
: how do you figure it out
: Thanks

my first question is "are San Fransisco and Denver in the same time zone?". if so, then the problem is easy. that is: 3hrs,53 min.
if the cities are in different time zones, then we must first determine how many hours difference there is. (i suggest a google seach to determine if the cities are in different time zones... I have the feeling they are-i tend to believe S.F. is pacific time and denver is mountain. but I really don't know.) so until you give us more info, I will wait to answer.
