Solution

To solve this problem, we need to find out how long the train journey takes, including the time it stops.

Step 1: Calculate the time it takes for the train to travel from A to B without stopping.

The distance between A and B is 999 km and the speed of the train is 55.5 km/hr. So, the time taken to travel from A to B without stopping is Distance/Speed = 999 km / 55.5 km/hr = 18 hours.

Step 2: Add the time the train stops on the way.

The train stops for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Convert 20 minutes to hours by dividing by 60 (since there are 60 minutes in an hour), which gives us approximately 1.33 hours.

So, the total time the train takes to travel from A to B, including the time it stops, is 18 hours + 1.33 hours = 19.33 hours.

Step 3: Calculate the time the train reaches B.

The train leaves A at 6 am. If we add 19.33 hours to this, we get 1:20 am the next day.

So, the correct answer is 1.20 AM.
