Question

A train leaves a station at 12 noon. It reaches another station at 14:00 hours the next day. How long does it take for the train to reach the next station?

• A. 14 hours
• B. 12 hours
• C. 13 hours
• D. 26 hours

Answer 1

The correct option is D

26 hours

One day has 24 hours. The train starts from the first station at 12 in the noon.

The number of hours between 12 noon today and the next day noon is 24 hours. Then add another 2 more hours to 14:00 hours. Hence the total time taken = 24 + 2 hours = 26 hours
