Given statement is "Quarter past 7".
Using this statement we have to find equivalent time.
We know that word "quarter" means one fouth (1/4) of the complete cycle.
Biggest unit of time in watch is hour so we will take quarter that is one fourth of 1 hour.
There are 60 minutes in an hour.
so one fouth of 60 minutes will be 60/4 or 15 minutes.
Hence "Quarter past 7" basically means 15 minutes more than 7 hours.
So equivalent time can be written as 7:15 or just 7 hours and 15 minutes.
