Answer :
The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.
110% = 440 minutes (Tuesday journey)
100% = 100/110 x 440
100% = 400 minutes (Monday journey)
Tuesday's journey took 40 minutes longer than Monday's journey.
What is a percentage?
The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value by the total value and multiplying by 100.
Example:
Required percentage value = a
total value = b
Percentage = a/b x 100
We have,
On Tuesday the train journey took 7 hours and 20 minutes and began at
13:53.
The time train journey ended.
= 13:53 + 7 hours + 20 minutes
= 13 hours + 53 minutes + 7 hours + 20 minutes
= 20 hours + 73 minutes
= 20 hours + 60 minutes + 13 minutes
= 20 hours + 1 hour + 13 minutes
= 21 hours + 13 minutes
This means,
= 21:13
The train ended the journey at 21:13
Tuesday's time of 7 hours and 20 minutes was 10% more than Monday's journey time.
This means,
Converting into minutes.
7 hours 20 minutes
= 60 x 7 + 20 minutes
= 420 minutes + 20 minutes
= 440 minutes
Monday's journey time.
110% = 440 minutes:
100% = 100/110 x 440
100% = 400 minutes
Thus,
Tuesday's journey took 40 minutes longer than Monday's journey.
