What is Garrett's total flight time?

• A. 300
• B. 120
• C. 500
• D. 237

Answer: (D)

Total flight time is found by adding up the durations of each flight segment. If any segment times are in hours and minutes, convert to a single unit (usually minutes) and then sum. In Garrett’s trip, the durations of all flight legs add up to 237 (which is 3 hours and 57 minutes). That exact total matches the data for the legs, so it’s the best choice. The other numbers would require a different sum or an incorrect unit conversion. If the question ever meant total travel time from departure to final arrival, including layovers on the ground, you’d add those layover times as well.
