                                     Lexy wants to calculate the duration
                                     from 12.57 p.m. to 16.05 p.m. She
                                     uses her calculator to subtract the
                                     start time from the end time as
                                     shown.

                                     Lexy writes the answer as 3 h 48 min.
                                     a)  Explain why her calculation is
                                         not correct,
                                     b)  Work out the correct answer.
