A train leaves Thorn Junction at 1:25 P.M. and arrives in Niles at 3:05 P.M. The train makes two stops along the route for a total of 15 minutes.
A second train leaves Thorn Junction at 4:30 P.M. and heads to Niles. This train does not make any stops.
What time will the second train arrive in Niles? Enter your answer in the boxes.
:
P.M.
The first train took 1 hour and 40 minutes (3:05 PM - 1:25 PM) to reach Niles with 15 minutes of stops. Therefore, its travel time without stops was 1 hour and 25 minutes.
The second train leaves Thorn Junction at 4:30 PM. If we add 1 hour and 25 minutes to this, we get:
4:30 PM + 1 hour and 25 minutes = 5:55 PM
Therefore, the second train will arrive in Niles at 5:55 PM.
Answer: 5 : 55 PM.
