Answer:

option (c) 4:15 a.m. Thursday

Explanation:

Time difference in New York City and Athens = 7 hours

Now,

The flight leaves at 7:30 a.m on Wednesday i.e 7:30 hrs

Therefore,

the time in Athens at the time of leaving of flight = 7:30 hrs + 7 hours

= 14 : 30 hrs i.e 2 : 30 pm on Wednesday

now,

after the 13 hours and 45 minutes of flight time in Athens i.e

= 14 : 30 + 13 : 45

= 28 : 15 i.e 1 day and 4 : 15 hrs

This means Flight will land at 4 : 15 a.m on Thursday

Hence,

option (c) 4:15 a.m. Thursday
