Solution

To calculate the duration of the train journey, we need to subtract the departure time from the arrival time.

Here's how to do it:

  1. Convert both times to a 24-hour format. 8:30 AM remains 8:30, but 1:45 PM becomes 13:45.

  2. Next, calculate the hours and minutes separately.

    For the hours: 13 (from 13:45) - 8 (from 8:30) = 5 hours

    For the minutes: 45 (from 13:45) - 30 (from 8:30) = 15 minutes

So, the train journey took 5 hours and 15 minutes. Therefore, the correct option is 1: 5 hours and 15 minutes.
