Solution

The correct option is D 38 minutes
Here, the || refers to modulus or absolute value of a number.

First, let's find the absolute value of the given location and then multiply the distance with the unit time given.

|374| = 374

On converting the mixed fraction, we get, 374 = 194 units

Given:
Time taken for 1 unit = 8 units
So, time taken for 194 units =194 × 8
= 19 × 2
= 38 minutes
