B1
  • adverb
  • So as to express the exact meaning of something
  • Used to say something is true, even if unlikely
  • Subtitles section
  • Let's do a classic problem that really shows up every time you take a flight.
  • I had to calculate something like this very recently because I had a flight from San Francisco to New York.
  • So it says, your flight leaves San Francisco at 9.53 a.m.
  • And arrives in New York at 6.26 p.m.
  • The return flight leaves New York at 11.42 p.m.
  • And arrives in San Francisco at 3.19 a.m.
  • The next day.
  • Which flight is longer by how much?
  • So let's tackle the first flight first.
  • So we're leaving at 9.53 and arrive at 6.26.
  • So remember, this is 9.53 a.m.
  • And this is the trick of this problem, this is San Francisco time.
  • San Fran, San Francisco time.
  • And then you're arriving in New York at 6.26 p.m.
  • But now this isn't San Francisco time, this isn't Pacific time.
  • This is now Eastern time, so this is New York time.
  • New York time.
  • And to do this problem, something that you would have to know is that New York is three hours ahead of San Francisco.
  • So this is three hours ahead.
  • So when it is noon in San Francisco, it is 3 p.m.
  • In New York.
  • When it is 1 p.m.
  • In San Francisco, it is 4 p.m.
  • In New York.
  • And so the trick to doing this type of problem is to really just make sure everything is in the same time zone.
  • So either put our San Francisco time in New York time, then we can subtract, or put the New York time in San Francisco time, and then we can subtract.
  • So let's put everything, for the sake of this problem, let's put everything in Eastern time.
  • So to do that, we have to take our San Francisco times and add three hours.
  • So plus three hours.
  • And we have to be careful here, because you could say 9 plus 12, that will get us to 12.53.
  • But we have to be careful here, because we're no longer at 12.53 a.m., we are now at 12.53 p.m.
  • And you could draw a number line, or I should say a timeline here to make that clear.
  • If you're at 9.53 a.m., 9.53 a.m., if you go one hour, let me draw a longer timeline over here, if you're at 9.53, if you add one hour, you're at 10.53, these are a.m., you add another hour, you are at 11.53, my handwriting is getting messy,
  • 11.53 a.m., and then you add another hour, so our third hour, you're now crossing the threshold from a.m.
  • Into p.m., so you are now at 12.53, but it is no longer a.m., it is now p.m.
  • So one way you could think about this first flight, we're leaving San Francisco at 12.53 p.m.
  • Eastern time, so now this is New York, so this is Eastern time, and then we're arriving in New York at 6.26 p.m.
  • Eastern time.
  • And now we can literally just subtract this time from that time, especially because they're both p.m., that's the easiest way to do it.
  • We could do it with a timeline, that would work as well, but just for simplicity, let's take, so we're finishing at 6.26 p.m., we started at 12.53, we're starting at 12.53 p.m., and now you might say,
  • Wait, how do you subtract 12.53 p.m.
  • From 6.26 p.m.?
  • And the key here is to put both of them in essentially military time.
  • This is essentially, if you put it in military time, this is still going to be 12.53.
  • If you put this up here in military time, you would add 12 to it, and so this is going to be 18.26.
  • So I added 12 here to put that into military time, and now the subtraction becomes pretty straightforward.
  • So you have 6 minus 3 is 3 minutes.
  • You have 2 minus 5 is essentially 20 minutes minus 50 minutes.
  • And right here, you're like, well, how do I subtract a larger number from a smaller number?
  • And we can borrow or regroup.
  • So we will borrow 1 hour from the 18 hours or from this 8 hours right over here.
  • That will become 7 hours.
  • Now we have an hour to put into this spot.
  • An hour is 6 10-minute periods.
  • This is our 10-minute spot.
  • So you would add 6 to this.
  • So this is how it's different than traditional borrowing or regrouping.
  • Since you have an hour, that's equivalent to 60 minutes.
  • So 60 minutes plus 20 minutes is 80 minutes.
  • It looks like we took a 6 and added to a 2, but that's because we're doing it in the 10-minute spot, the 10-minute place.
  • We really took 60 minutes from out of here and added to this 20 minutes and got 80 minutes.
  • But what that allows us to do is now subtract.
  • 80 minutes minus 50 minutes is 30 minutes.
  • And then you have 7 hours minus 2 hours is 5 hours.
  • And then you have 10 hours minus 10 hours, and the 1s cancel out.
  • And we're left with 5 hours and 33 minutes.
  • That's how long our first flight takes.
  • Now let's try to tackle the second flight.
  • The second flight is interesting because we're leaving at 11.42 p.m.
  • And arriving in San Francisco at 3.19 a.m.
  • The next day.
  • So once again, let's convert everything to Eastern Time.
  • So we're leaving at 11.42 p.m., and then we are arriving, and that's Eastern Time, and then we're arriving at 3.19 a.m.
  • Pacific Time.
  • If we want to convert that 3.19 to Eastern, you add 3 hours.
  • So this is 6 to 6.19 a.m.
  • And there's two ways that you can do this, actually more than two ways.
  • The simplest way might just be with a number line, especially because we're crossing this day.
  • We're crossing 12 a.m.
  • Going into the next day.
  • So if we think about it that way, so that's my timeline.
  • If we're starting at 11.42 p.m., it'll take us 18 minutes to get to midnight.
  • So that's 18 minutes to midnight.
  • Gets us to 12 a.m.
  • And then we get another 6 hours and 19 minutes.
  • And then we have another 6 hours and 19 minutes to get to when our flight lands in San Francisco, remember, and this is all in Eastern Time.
  • So this is 6.19 a.m.
  • Eastern Time, although we're landing in San Francisco.
  • So we can literally just add these up.
  • So it's going to be 6 hours, 6 hours, and then 19 plus 18 is 37 minutes, 6 hours and 37 minutes.
  • So clearly going from San Francisco to New York took less time than coming back.
  • We probably have a headwind of some type coming back.
  • Now the other way we could have done it, and this is a little less intuitive because we're going to use some type of time frame that isn't so obvious.
  • You could have subtracted 11.42 from 6.19, and you could have done it by doing something a little bit strange.
  • You could have said that, so we're going to subtract 11.42.
  • Let me do it.
  • So we're going to subtract 11.42, and you want to subtract it from 6.19, but 6.19 is in the next time period.
  • So I want to do this.
  • It won't be military time because in military time, you would just say it's 6.19 a.m., but we're saying since we're subtracting from it something in the previous time period, in the previous 12-hour period,
  • I'm still going to add 12 hours to it because then if we didn't reset it at I guess we should say 1 a.m., if we didn't go from 12 to 1, and we just kept going, so it became 1,300 hours.
  • I shouldn't say that because that's military time, and then 14 and 15. This eventually would get to 18 instead of 6.19 a.m.
  • So this isn't military time.
  • This is some bizarre thing that I'm just setting up just so that the math works out, but this you could rewrite since it's in the next time period from the 11.42.
  • You could write this as 18.19, and then you can subtract.
  • So 9 minus 2 is 7. You have 1 minus 4. Can't do that.
  • Borrow an hour, so that becomes a 7. If you borrow an hour here, you have 10 minutes here.
  • You're going to be able to add 60 minutes to it, so that becomes a 7. 7 minus 4 is 3, and then 7 minus 1 is 6, and then these cancel out.
  • So once again, you get 6 hours and 37 minutes.
  • Either way, the return flight is longer.
