Question

My watch is 6mins fast and the train which should have arrived at my station at 11:30am was 5mins late. What time was it by my watch when the train arrived

Answer 1

11:41

Step-by-step explanation:

your watch is 6 mint fast

when actual time is 11:30 your watch show 11:36

your train is late 5 mints that means actual time your watch is 11:36+5 mint extra that means it id equal to 11:41

Answer 2

Given :

The actual time of train arriving = 11 : 30 AM

The train delayed by 5 min

The timing shown in watch is fast by 6 min

To Find :

The timing on the watch when train arrived

Solution :

As Actual timing of train = 11 : 30 AM

And The train delayed by 5 min

So. The train arrived at time = 11 : 30 AM + 5 min = 11 : 35 AM

Now,

As The watch is fast by 6 min of actual timing ,

So, when train reached by delayed of 5 min, then timing on watch = 11 : 35 AM + 6 min fast

∴ The timing on watch = 11 : 33 AM + 6 min = 11 : 41 AM

Hence, The time at which train arrived the station was 11 : 41 AM  Answer
