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.
