Question

Reaching the place of meeting $15$ minutes before $8.30$ am, Anuj found himself half an hour earlier than the man who was $40$ minutes late. What was the scheduled time of meeting?

• A. $8.00$ am
• B. $8.05$ am
• C. $8.15$ am
• D. $8.10$ am

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$8.05$ am

Anuj reached the place at $08:15$ hrs.

Clearly, the man who was $40$ minutes late would reach the place at $8:45$ a.m.

So, the scheduled time was $8:05$
Hence, option $B$ is the correct answer.
