For example, if the elapsed time is 9630 seconds, then the method will display is 2:40:30. Write a main() method that will prompt a user for elapsed time for an event in seconds, and use received value to demonstrate that the method works correctly

Answer 1

#include <iostream>


using namespace std;


int main()
{
    int Elapsed_time, hr, min, sec;
    
    const int secPerMin = 60;
    const int secPerHr = 60 * secPerMin;
    
    cout << "Please enter the number of seconds elapsed: ";
    cin >> Elapsed_time;
    
    hr = Elapsed_time / secPerHr;
    Elapsed_time = Elapsed_time % secPerHr;
    min = Elapsed_time / secPerMin;
    sec = Elapsed_time % secPerMin;
    
    cout << hr << ":" << min << ":" << sec << endl;
    return 0;
