Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a day contains 24 hours in total.
The time already passed will be represented by [tex]x[/tex].
The remaining time would be [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex], becasye half of what has already passed remains until the end of the day.
Basically, the sum of these two expression gives 24 hours in total.
[tex]x + \frac{x}{2} =24\\\frac{3x}{2}=24\\ x=16[/tex]
Therefore, the actual time is 4 p.m.
