Solution

Departure time: 10:15 PM (at night)

Arrival time: 1:40 PM (the next day)

Calculate the time from 10:15 PM to midnight (12:00 AM):

From 10:15 PM to 12:00 AM is 1 hour and 45 minutes.

Calculate the time from midnight (12:00 AM) to 1:40 PM the next day:

From 12:00 AM to 1:40 PM is 13 hours and 40 minutes.

Now, adding these two durations together:

1 hour 45 minutes + 13 hours 40 minutes = 15 hours 25 minutes.

So, the total time for the journey is 15 hours and 25 minutes, which is correct.

The answer given in the image matches this result.
