Answer 2

❥ Given Data

• Train Starts from Patna on : 30th May 2020 at 23 : 40 hours
• Train Reaches to Mumbai on : 1st June 2020 at 5 : 15 PM
• Total Travel time   $\sf{--To\:Find}$

❥ Solution

$\bullet$ Train Starts from Patna on : 30th May 2020 at 23 : 40 hours

$\bullet$ Train Reaches to Mumbai on : 1st June 2020 at 5 : 15 PM

• The time when Train Reaches is given as 5 : 15 PM. It is in 12 hour format. We shall convert it into 24 hour format for Simplicity!

$\bigstar$ So, Train Reaches to Mumbai on : 1st June 2020 at 17 : 15 hours

$\longrightarrow$ From This Information we can say that, The journey has started on 30th May continued on 31st may and ended on 1st June of Year 2020. We can find the total Travel time by Adding the time spent on each specific day

Time Spent on 30th May

⇒ 60 min - 40 min = 20 min (∵  1 hour = 60 minutes)

Time Spent on 31th May

⇒ 24 hours (∵ 1 day = 24 hours ; Whole day is spent)

Time Spent on 1st June

⇒ 17 hours + 15 min (We already converted 5 : 15 PM into 24 hour Format)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀

$:\implies$ Total Travel Time = Time Spent on 30th May + Time Spent on 31st May + Time Spent on 1st June

$:\implies$ Total Travel Time = 20 m + 24 hours + 17 hours + 15 min

$:\implies$Total Travel Time = 24 hours + 17 hours + 15 min + 20 min

$:\implies$ Total Travel Time = 41 hours + 35 min

Total time travelled by train on this journey is 41 hours and 35 minutes
