Josefina arrives at Barney's Burger Barn at 7:45 pm. How much time remains before it closes?

Explanation:
Think in terms of how much time is left until the closing time. Barney’s Burger Barn closes at 9:00 pm, so the remaining time from 7:45 pm is the difference between 9:00 pm and 7:45 pm. From 7:45 to 8:45 is 1 hour, and from 8:45 to 9:00 is 15 minutes. Together that’s 1 hour and 15 minutes. So the time left is 1 hour 15 minutes.
