Answer:

The answer is correct.The given question has the clock concept.

Final Answer:

9 AM + 5 hours = 2 PM (or) 9 PM+ 5 hours = 2 AM => 2 o' clock

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question,

• First we should Add 5 and 9.That is,

                $5+9=14$

• In the hands of a clock, After the time of 12 o' clock we should calculate

               → 1 o' clock consider as 13,

               → 2 o' clock consider as 14,

               → 3 o' clock as 15

               → 4 o' clock as 16

               → 5 o' clock as 17 ans so on......

• Using the above concept the the time of 2 o' clock consider as 14

• So that 9 AM + 5 hours = 2 PM (or) 9 PM+ 5 hours = 2 AM.
