expressingTimeliness - avoir [duration] d

On a quiz, 'Marie avait deux heures d'avance' was not considered correct. But in the lesson on timeliness, 'early -> avoir [5 minutes] d'avance' was given as a rule. I must be looking right past something here.

Hi Jack,

Marie avait deux heures d'avance = Marie was two hours early

Can you repost using your Report it button on your correction board as it will link directly to the quiz in question and we can have a look; there may be another reason why this was marked incorrect.
