A ship began its journey at 07 10 on 13 May and reached its destination 33 hours later.
- On what date did the ship reach its destination?
- At what time did the ship reach its destination?
(a)
1 day = 24 hours
Number of days in 33 h
= 33 ÷ 24
= 1 r 9
1 day after 13 May = 14 May
(b)
33 h = 24 h + 9 h
24 h after 07 10= 07 10
9 h after 07 10= 16 10
The time that the ship reached its destination = 16 10
Answer(s): (a) 14 May; (b) 16 10
