A bus leaves at 4:25 and has a travel time of 1 hour and 45 minutes. On a normal schedule, what time would it arrive?

• A. 5:25
• B. 5:45
• C. 7:35
• D. 6:05

Answer: (D)

The main idea is to add the travel time to the departure time, handling minutes that push past 60 by carrying to the next hour. Start at 4:25. Add one hour to get 5:25. Then add 45 minutes: 5:25 + 45 minutes equals 6:10. So the arrival time is 6:10. If the listed options don’t include 6:10, that likely indicates a misprint in the choices.
