Answer 2

Explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Damascus time : 8:00 AM is equal to Vladivostok time : 4:00 PM

It means, Damascus is backward (
`4:00PM - 8:00 AM`) means 8 hrs backward from Vladivostok.

When Flight departs from Vladivostok at 10:45 AM, it means Damascus will be 8 hrs backward time then, so, time in Damascus will be =
`10:45 AM - 8 hrs = 2:45 AM`

Means flight depart time is Damascus is 2:45 AM

Flight lands Damascus at 12:30 PM.

Hence total flight time is :
`12:30 PM - 2:45 AM = 9:45 hrs`

hence flight is 9 hrs 45 minute long. : Answer
