Explanation
to find the missing value we need to solve the equation
[tex]blank+48minutes=16\colon00[/tex]so, to isolate the blank subtract 48 minutes in both sides
[tex]\begin{gathered} blank+48minutes-48minutes=16\colon00-48minutes \\ blank=16\colon00-48minutes \end{gathered}[/tex]To subtract time,subtract minutes then subtract the hours, since we can not have negative minutes , add 60to minutes and subtract 1 from the hours , so
[tex]16\colon00\text{ =15 hours +60 minutes}[/tex]replace and do the subtraction
[tex]\begin{gathered} blank=16\colon00-48minutes \\ blank=15\colon00-48minutes+60\text{minutes} \\ blank=15\colon12 \end{gathered}[/tex]therefore, the answer is
