Answer:

The ship arrived at 5 am on Saturday

Explanation:

Here, we want to know at what time and day the ship arrive the second port

we simply need to add the time it left the first port and the amount of time the journey took

Mathematically, that will be;

22:45 + 7 1/4

1/4 is same as 60/4 = 15 minutes

So we have;

22:45 + 7:15

= 5 am on Saturday
