Train will take 1140 mins ( 19 hrs) more for the train to be running an hour late
Step-by-step explanation:
a train is running 3 minute late
train to be running an hour late - train has to be further late by 1hr - 3minutes
= 60 - 3
= 57 mins
Train losses 3 Secs per minutes
=> 3/60 mins per minutes
=> 1 mins every 1/(3/60) = 60/2 = 20 mins
57 mins will be lost in 57 * 20 mins = 1140 mins
= 57 * 20/60 hrs
= 19 hrs
