Phyllis is going to take a 5-hour-17-minute flight from Orlando, Florida, to Las

Vegas, Nevada, that leaves at 11:05 a.m. Orlando time. If Orlando is in the
eastern time zone and Las Vegas is in the Pacific time zone, what will be the
local time in Las Vegas when the flight arrives?
Use the following to help you answer the question.
12:00 p.m. eastern time = 11:00 a.m. central time = 10:00 a.m. mountain
time = 9:00 a.m. Pacific time.

Answer:

Explanation:

ok...so she leaves Orlando at 11:05 am.....the flight takes 5 hr and 17 minutes..

11:05 am + 5 hrs = 4:05 pm.....4:05 + 17 minutes = 4:22 pm.

so she arrives at 4:22 pm eastern time....(orlando time)...but Las Vegas is pacific time

so if 12 pm eastern = 9 am pacific.....a difference of 3 hrs

so the local time in Las Vegas when her plane lands is :

4:22 pm - 3 hrs = 1:22 pm <===
