Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 14 hours 10 minutes

Given:

A train leaves station P at 8:18 a.m.

The train reaches the station Q at 10:28 p.m. on the same day

Concept used:

1 hour = 60 minutes

We can write, 12 ∶ 00 = 11 ∶ 60

Calculation:

Time is taken by the train up to 12 ∶ 00 pm = 11 ∶ 60 - 8 ∶ 18 = 3 hours 42 minutes

Time is taken by the train from 12 ∶ 00 pm to 10 ∶ 28 pm = 10 hours 28 minutes 

Total time is taken by the train to reach station Q = 3 hours 42 minutes + 10 hours 28 minutes

⇒ 13 hours 70 minutes 

⇒ 14 hours 10 minutes

∴ The time is taken by train to reach Q is 14 hours 10 minutes
