A train left Lahore at 9:32 a.m. and reached Peshawar at 5:23 p.m. How long did it take?
Answer: 7 hours and 51 minutes
Explanation
To find the duration of the train journey, subtract the start time from the arrival time:
Arrival time: 5:23 p.m.
Start time: 9:32 a.m.
Convert both times to a 24-hour clock:
Arrival time: 17:23 (5:23 p.m.)
Start time: 09:32 (9:32 a.m.)
Subtract the start time from the arrival time:
17:23 - 09:32 = 7 hours 51 minutes
Therefore, the train journey took 7 hours and 51 minutes.
