Don't understand the question about continuous random variables!!! STATS!

Don't understand the question about continuous random variables!!! STATS!?
a. An airline knows the duration of the flight from Pittsburgh to Minneapolis is uniformly distributed between 120 and 140 minutes. The flight departs at 1:00 p.m. The airline wants the probability that the flight will be late not to exceed .25. What scheduled arrival time should the airline announce? b.If the flight is early, it may have to wait until its arrival gate is available for deplaning. Assume that the arrival gate becomes available between 3:00 p.m. and 3:10 p.m, and that the time the arrival gate becomes available and the arrival time of the flight are statistically independent and jointly uniformly distributed. What is the probability that the flight arriving from Pittsburgh will have to wait for its gate?
