Solution
The correct option is C14:40 Given:
Flight was scheduled for departure at 13:25 which is the 24-hour format of the time 1:25P.M.
Flight is delayed by 1 hr 15 mins
∴ Updated departure time = Scheduled time + delay time, shown in figure below,
Therefore, updated time of departure is 14:40. This is again in the 24 hour format. In terms of AM or PM we will subtract 12:00 from 14:40 and the time would be (14−12):40PM=2:40PM.
