Question

Suraj reached the coffee shop 20 minutes before 8:50 h, and he came 30 minutes before Suman who reached 40 minutes late. What was the scheduled time of the meeting?

Options

• 8:05 h

• 8:20 h

• 8: 09 h

• 8:10 h

Answer 1

8:20 h
Explanation:
20 minutes before 8:50 h = 8:30 h.
∴ Suraj reached at 8:30h.
Since Suraj came 30 minutes before Suman, so Suman would have come at 9:00 h.
Also, Suman was 40 minutes late.
∴ Scheduled time of meeting = 9:00 h - 40 min = 8:20 h
