Understanding the Journey Time
To determine how long the bus journey takes, we need to calculate the time difference between the departure and arrival times.
Departure Time
- The bus leaves the station at 10:45 a.m.
Arrival Time
- The bus arrives at 1:15 p.m.
Calculating the Duration
1. Convert both times into a 24-hour format for easier calculation:
- 10:45 a.m. remains 10:45.
- 1:15 p.m. converts to 13:15.
2. Calculate the time from 10:45 to 13:15:
- From 10:45 to 11:45 is 1 hour.
- From 11:45 to 12:45 is another 1 hour.
- From 12:45 to 1:15 is 30 minutes.
3. Add the hours and minutes together:
- Total hours = 2 hours
- Total minutes = 30 minutes
Final Calculation
- Combining both gives us a total journey time of 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Conclusion
The correct answer is option 'C': 2 hours 30 minutes.
