Respuesta :

Oseni

The clock will read 4:50 by the time Tomas leaves the class.

Time calculation

The clock makes a complete cycle every 4 seconds. This means that 4 seconds make a minute as far as the clock is concerned.

Tomas entered the class at 9:00 am and left at 9:50 am. This means he used a total of 50 minutes.

50 x 60 = 3,000 seconds

Recall that: 4 seconds = 1 minute for the clock

  3,000/4 = 750 minutes

  750/60 = 12.5 hours

Add 12.5 hours to 4:20 = 4:50
