We know that 8:10 PM equal 20:10
So now we just need to subtract 20:10 with 2:16, but we had the problem with that because we could not subtract 10 minutes with 16 minutes, so we need to borrow 60 minutes of 20 and add that with 10, so we had
19:70-2:16=17:54 or 17 hours 54 minutes. As a result, D is your final answer. Hope it help!

Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

We have to calculate the elapsed time between 2:16 A.M. and 8:10 P.M.

First we convert time in 24 hour format.

2:16 A.M. = 2:16

8:10 P.M. = 20:10

Now subtract to get the elapsed time.

Hour Min.

20 10

- 2 16

17 54

The elapsed time is 17 hours 54 minutes.

Option D. is the answer.
