Answer:
14:10
Explanation:
We are given that the total train journey from Reading to Worle is the same for all trains
For the first train the time taken = 13:45 - 12:05
13:45
-
12:05
--------
1 : 40
--------
So total travel time = 1 hour 40 minutes
For the third train time taken
15:05 - 13:25
15:05 = 14:05 + 0:60 since there are 60 minutes in an hour (we carry 60 from the hours part)
14:05 + 0:60 = 14:65
15:05 - 13:25 =
14:65
-
13:25
---------
1 : 40 or 1 hour 40 minutes same as train #1
We want to find the arrival time of train #2 at Worle
Departure time of train #2 from Reading = 12:30
Time of travel = 1 hour 40 minutes
Arrival time = 12:30 + 1:40
12:30 time
+
1: 40 hours
----------
13:70 time
------------------
Since there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, to convert 13:70 to proper time units
subtract 60 from 70 to get the minute part of time and add 1 to 13 to get the hour part of time
13:70 = 14:10
Therefore the time that goes into the gap = 14:10
Verify
If the second train leaves Reading at 12:30 and arrives at Worle at 14:10, then time taken =
14:10 - 12:30 = 13:70 - 12:30 = 1:40 = 1 hour 40 minutes
