Answer :

Sure! Let's figure out at what time Peter completed his trip.

1. Start Time: Peter began his trip at 8:30 AM.

2. Duration of Trip: The trip took 7 hours and 13 minutes.

3. Adding the Duration:
- Hours: Start hour is 8 AM. Adding 7 hours to 8 AM gives us 15 (or 3 PM).
- Minutes: Start with 30 minutes. Adding 13 minutes gives 43 minutes.

4. Calculate the End Time:
- This gives us a new time of 15:43.

So, in a 24-hour clock system, Peter completed his trip at 15:43.
