Answer:

The train arrives in Kaduna, Nigeria at 7:10 PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • A train leaves Lagos (Iddo) at 7.30 am for Kaduna. The journey took 11 hours 40 minutes. When did the train arrives in Kaduna?

To find the arrival time, we add the travel time to the departure time.

  • Departure time: 7:30 AM
  • Travel time: 11 hours 40 minutes

First, adding 11 hours to 7:30 AM gives us 6:30 PM. Then, adding the remaining 40 minutes results in 7:10 PM.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{array}{l}\underline{\textsf{Train Travel Time Calculation}}\\\sf \text{Departure Time:}\;7:30\; AM\\\sf \text{Travel Duration:}\; 11\;\text{hours}\; 40\; \text{minutes}\\\textsf{Calculation:}\\\phantom{ww}\bullet\;\textsf{Add 11 hours to 7:30 AM = 6:30 PM.}\\\phantom{ww}\bullet\;\textsf{Add 40 minutes to 6:30 PM = 7:10 PM.}\\\sf \text{Arrival Time:}\; 7:10\; PM\end{array}}[/tex]

Note:

  • When calculating time durations that extend beyond midnight or for long hours, break down the addition into smaller parts (hours first, then minutes).
  • Always check if the added time crosses over from AM to PM or involves the next day.
