Solution
List of time entries in hours and minutes
time_entries = [ (1, 30), (0, 40), (1, 35), (0, 40), (3, 0), (2, 0), (0, 35), (0, 30), (2, 0), (3, 10), (1, 45), (1, 40), (0, 30), (1, 0), (2, 30), (0, 40), (2, 30), (2, 10), (0, 30), (0, 40), (3, 0), (0, 20), (0, 30), (1, 20), (0, 50), (2, 0), (3, 0), (0, 20), (0, 40), (0, 45), (1, 0), (2, 0) ]
Convert all times to minutes and sum them
total_minutes = sum(hours * 60 + minutes for hours, minutes in time_entries)
Convert total minutes back to hours and minutes
total_hours = total_minutes // 60 remaining_minutes = total_minutes % 60
total_hours, remaining_minutes(45, 20)(45, 20)successThe total time is 45 hours and 20 minutes.
Do you want to see the detailed calculations for this? Here are some follow-up questions to consider:
- How do we convert hours and minutes into total minutes?
- Why is it important to keep track of both hours and minutes separately when adding times?
- Can we create a formula or method to automate time addition for any list?
- How would this change if seconds were involved as well?
- Could you use this for scheduling tasks in a calendar system?
Tip: Always double-check your time units (hours, minutes) before adding to avoid errors!
