Elapsed Time Problem Solving

The video tutorial explains how to solve elapsed time word problems where the end time is unknown. It begins by identifying the question, setting up the problem with a known start time and duration, and then calculating the end time by making time jumps. The solution is finalized by verifying the calculated end time.
