C. Solving word problems involving time.
Lucia will go to school one hour after. If it is 6:00 in the
morning, what time will Lucia go to school?

Solution 1:
Time right now is 6:00. She will go to school one hour
after, so, we will add one hour. ( 6 + 1 = 7). Lucia will go
to school by 7:00.

Solution 2:

By using a clock, 7:00 follows 6:00, so

Lucia will go to school by 7:00.

His father who is working abroad is planning to go home
