Python function that takes two values [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:

• TypeError: Can't convert 'int' object to str implicitly 1 answer

This function take two integers x is the hour and y is the minute. The function should print the time in the text to the nearest hour. This is the code I have written.

def approxTime(x, y):
    if int(y) <= 24:
        print("the time is about quarter past" + int(y))
    elif 25 >= int(y) <=40:
        print("the time is about half past" + int(y))
    elif 41 >= int(y) <= 54:
        print("the time is about quarter past" + int(y+1))
    else:
        print("the time is about" + int(y+1) +"o'clock")
approxTime(3, 18)

However I am getting this error message.
