Total time lapsed between 10 am and 1.27 pm = 3 hours and 27 min = 180 + 27 min = 207 min
 
Let the duration of each period be x min
 
5 min are given free to each student. So, there have been 4 periods held, hence there would be 3 free breaks given
 
4x + 5*3 = 207
4x = 207-15
4x = 192
x = 48 min. 
Hence each period if of 48 min.
