3 am

Step-by-step explanation:

Time in hell : Time on Earth

120 : 1

50 : x

120/50 = 1/x

x = 5/12 years

Since,

1 year = 365 days and 1 day = 24 hours

In hours,

5/12 * 365 = 152 1/12 days

152 days after 1 am, would be 1 am.

1/12 days which is also 2 hours later, it would be 3 am.

1/12 day * 24 = 2 hours
