Answer 1

Answer:

1)2 hour 20 minute

2) Shailesh ran faster by 20 min.

3) 1 hour 35 min

Step-by-step explanation:

1) duration of first show = 1 hour 35 minute

   duration of second show = 45 min

thus, amit watched television = 1 hr 35min + 45 min

                                                     = 2hr 20min

2) time taken to complete the race by Shailesh  = 1 hr 25 min

time taken by Abhinav = 1 hr 45 min

thus, 1hr 45 min - 1 hr 25 min = 20 min

3)time taken by punjab mail = 3 hr 15 min

time taken by gatimaan express = 1 hour 40 min

thus,  3 hr 15 min - 1 hour 40 min

= 1 hour 35 min

Riya will save 1 hour 35 minutes
