Let us find out the difference between the times given to figure out the pattern.
The times given are 1:55 pm, 2:03 pm, 2:11 pm, 2:24 pm, 2:45 pm, 3:19 pm and 4:14 pm.
The difference between 2 consecutive times given are 8 minutes, 8 minutes, 13 minutes, 21 minutes, 34 minutes, and 55 minutes.
We can observe that the difference between the times are in the Fibonacci series.
8 + 13 = 21
21 + 13 = 34
34 + 21 = 55
The Fibonacci series is as follows:
1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55.
But the first difference in the times given is 8.
Therefore, the missing time must be such that it divides the interval of 8 minutes into 3 minutes and 5 minutes.
The missing time should be 1:58 pm and hence, option B is the right answer.
