Explanation

Dividing 100,000 seconds by 3,600 seconds per hour, you get 27 hours plus $$\frac{7}{9}$$ hr.

Multiplying $$\frac{7}{9}$$ hr by 60 minutes per hour, you get $$46\frac{2}{3}$$ minutes. Therefore, to the nearest minute, 100,000 seconds is equal to 27 hours, 47 minutes. After 24 hours, the time will be 9:30 p.m. Wednesday; 3 hours, 47 minutes after that, it will be 1:17 a.m., Thursday, choice D.
