A motorist starts travelling at 23:117 on a 172km journey.At what time will he arrive at his destination given that he travels at an average speed of 48km/h?

Time in hrs=dist/speed 172/48 = 3.583
He starts at 23.117 so Time of final arrival=23.117+3.583
26.700 i.e. (26.7-24)=2.7 or 2hours & 7 min next day
