Clue
IT WOULD BE 9:00 PM. THERE ARE 12 HOURS BETWEEN 1:00 PM AND 1:00 AM AND HALF OF THAT IS SIX HOURS. HALF-WAY BETWEEN WOULD BE 7 O'CLOCK. TWO HOURS LATER IT WOULD BE 9:00 O'CLOCK
THE TIME IS 9PM (OR 21:00 HOURS) RIGHT NOW. THERE ARE 12 HOURS BETWEEN THE 2 TIMES (1PM AND 1AM), AND HALF OF THAT TIME IS 6 HOURS. SO, THE HALFWAY MARK WOULD HAVE TO BE 7PM (1PM + 6 HOURS). IF IT WAS 7PM TWO HOURS AGO, THE TIME WOULD BE 9PM NOW
JENNIE IS 12 YEARS OLD. LET X BE JENNIE'S AGE. WE CAN COME UP WITH THE EQUATION: X + 2 = 2(X - 5) SOLVINGO FOR X GIVES 12. IN 2 YEARS TIME, JENNIE WILL BE 14 YEARS OLD. FIVE YEARS AGO, JENNIE WAS 7 YEARS OLD - HALF OF 14
7 PM. THREE HOURS LATER, IT WOULD BE 10 PM (2 HOURS TO MIDNIGHT) AND FOUR HOURS LATER, IT WOULD BE 11 PM (1 HOUR TO MIDNIGHT)
