 Rod jogs everyday around the park.
This morning, he started jogging at
6:12 a.m. and ended at 6:48 a.m.
About how long did he jogs this
morning?
• What is being asked in the problem?
• Will you compute for the exact time that Rod spent
in jogging
• What will you do then?
• Estimate the amount of time spent by Rod in
jogging.
• How will you do it?
Round the times in minutes.
 Study this.
Actual Times Estimated Times
6:48 6:50
Subtract the
- 6:12 - 6:10 rounded times.

Therefore: Rod jogged for about 40 minutes.

Try to round the actual elapsed time. Is your
answer reasonable?
 Work by pairs to find the estimated
elapsed time for the following situations.
