You start night shift at 22:00 and finish at 06:00 with a 45-minute break. How many hours do you work?

To calculate the total number of hours worked during the night shift, follow these steps:

1. The total time from 22:00 (10:00 PM) to 06:00 (6:00 AM) is:
   - From 22:00 to 00:00 (midnight) = 2 hours
   - From 00:00 to 06:00 = 6 hours
   So, total shift time = 2 hours + 6 hours = **8 hours**

2. Now, subtract the 45-minute break from the total shift time:
   - 45 minutes = 0.75 hours
   - Total work hours = 8 hours - 0.75 hours = **7.25 hours**

So, you work **7 hours and 15 minutes** during the night shift.

**Tip:** When calculating time differences across midnight, it's easier to break it into segments before and after midnight.
