well the simplest way it to use a calculator ..

take 227 and divide by 55

in match script it would 227/55

now if ya don’t have a calulator ( or can do the math in your head.. try this way, it’s a good way to check work like this also..

how many times does 55 go into 227 ??

hum .. well there’s 55 : 110 : 165 : and then 220. so it would be 4 ( 4X55=220) with 7 left over … and that would be 7/55ths ( as a fraction ) or about 8 minutes

so the answear would be 4 and 7/55th hours. or 4 hours 8 minutes.( about.. depending on how closs you nead to be with your answear )

55 is about 60, 227 isn’t far from 240. 240/60 = 4 hours. Since you went up with both of them, you’re probably not far off.

227/55 = 4. Not exactly, but close enough.
