Explanation / Answer

First you add up all of the hours in flight 17H + 2h+1h=20Hours then the minutes 20min+ 40min + 15min=1H15min so together you have 21hours and 15 min. The way I would do this issince its under 24 hours (1 day) simply subtract 24hours minus theflight time(21:15) which gives you 2 hours and 45 min simply subtract that from the time left 3:45pm-2:45=1 so MJarrived at 1 o'clock pm the following day(Friday)Chicago time. Note: if it was more than 24 hours you would add from 3:45PM ex.26 hours =5:45 the following day
