C Correct answer
Explanation

Total time is 25 hours, but the train stops for 1 hour at two stations, meaning it is moving for 25 - 2 = 23 hours. Distance = Speed * Moving Time = x * 23 = 23x.

AI explanation

Out of the total 25 hours, the train stops for 1 hour at two stations, meaning it is moving for 25 - 2 = 23 hours. Using the distance formula where distance equals speed multiplied by time, the distance covered is x km/hour * 23 hours = 23x.
