so if pablo travel by plane, the time will take=400/300=4/3 hr=80 min
so if pablo travel by train, the time will take =400/60=20/3 ht=400 min
so difference is 320 min
so clearly B is our Answer.

Time taken for the plane - 80 mins
Time taken for train - 400 mins
Time taken by waiting (320 mins) + time taken for Plane (80 mins) = Time taken for Train (400 mins)
A (320) < B (330)
