Solution

The correct option is B 24 hours
Ted starts his journey at: 12:00 pm on Friday
Ted reaches city B at: 9:00 am on Saturday.
From 12:00 noon Friday to 12:00 midnight Saturday, time elapsed is 12 hours.
And, from 12:00 midnight Saturday to 9 :00 am in the morning on Saturday, time elapsed is 9 hours.
⇒ Duration of train journey= 12 + 9 = 21 hours
Duration of bus travel = 3 hours.

∴ Total duration of Ted’s journey = 21 + 3 = 24 hours = 1 day
