Solution

Alec started his science fair project at 10 o'clock. He worked on it for 5 hours straight. To find out what time he finished, you simply need to add the duration of his work to the time he started.

Step 1: Alec started at 10 o'clock. Step 2: He worked for 5 hours. Step 3: Add the number of hours Alec worked to the time he started working.

10 (start time) + 5 (hours worked) = 15

In a 24-hour clock, 15:00 is equivalent to 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

So, Alec finished working on his science fair project at 3 o'clock.
