Sam took a flight from Malaysia to UK. He left Malaysia at 12 pm local time. The flight time was 12 hours. If Malaysia is 7 hours ahead of UK, what was the local time in UK when he arrived?​

Respuesta :

Given:

Sam left Malaysia at 12 pm local time.

The flight time was 12 hours.

Malaysia is 7 hours ahead of UK.

To find:

The local time in UK when he arrived.

Solution:

It is given that Sam left Malaysia at 12 pm local time and the flight time was 12 hours.

12 hours after 12 pm is 12 am. It means local time in Malaysia when he reached UK is 12 am.

Malaysia is 7 hours ahead of UK. So, we need to subtract 7 hours from 12 am to get the local time in UK when he arrived.

12 am is midnight. So, 7 hours before 12 am is 5 pm.

12 am - 7 hours = 5 pm

Therefore, the local time in UK when he arrived is 5 pm.
