Given:

Depart 2:30 pm PST

Arrive 7:20 pm CST

To find:

The total travel time

Solution:

We know that time in CST is 2 hours more than the time in PST

Depart time = 2:30 pm PST

Convert this time in CST.

Depart time = (2:30+2:00) pm CST

= 4:30 pm CST

We have,

Arrive time = 7:20 pm CST

The total travel time is the difference between 7:20 pm CST and 4:30 pm CST.

7:20 pm - 4:30 pm = 2 hr 50 min

The total travel time is 2 hr 50 min.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
