A train starts from Bengaluru at 23:55 hours on 29th June 2020 and reaches Guwahati on 2nd July 2020 at 05:20 hours. What is the total travel time from Bengaluru to Guwahati? Correct Answer 53 hours 25 minutes

Concept Used:

On the train, there is a 24- an hour clock.

The total number of days in June is 30.

Calculation:

Total time from 29 June 23:55 hours to 30 June at 00:00 hours is 5 minutes.

Total time from 30 June at 00:00 hours to 1 July 00:00 hours is 24 hours.

Total time from 1 July at 00:00 hours to 2 July at 00:00 hours is 24 hours.

and total time from 2 July 00:00 hours to 05:20 hours is 5 hours and 20 minutes 

Total travel time = 5 minutes + 24 hours + 24 hours + 5 hours +  20 minutes = 53 hours 25 minutes..

Hence the total travel time is 53 hours 25 minutes.
