Question

If you fly east from Japan to California, what time and day will you arrive if you left at 1:00 am (Japanese

Time) and the flight takes 10 hours? It is Monday

Answer 1

Answer:

The flight arrives at 7:00 PM on Sunday California time.

Explanation:

Japan is 16 hours ahead of U.S time.

Let us find the time in California when the flight takes off in Japan:

When the flight left Japan at 1:00 am on Monday, the time in Califonia at that same time was:   1 am - 16 hours = 9:00 am Sunday in California.

If the flight takes 10 hours, the time in California when the flight arrives is determined as follows:

9:00 am + 10 hours = 7:00 PM Sunday California time

Therefore the flight arrives at 7:00 PM on Sunday California time
