Answer 1

Answer:

9:15 am

Step-by-step explanation:

if the bus is leaving at 9:35 then subtract thirty mins from it... u will get 9;05

previous bus left at 9:05...

but when a passenger asked clerk he told ten min before means he asked at 9:15 that is 10 min after 9:05

Answer 2

Given:

CTU buses leave Chandigarh Bus Stand after every 30 minutes.

The clerk told a passenger that the bus had already left ten minutes ago and next bus will be leaving at 9.35 am.

To Find:

At what time did the clerk give this information to the passenger?

Solution:

We know that the bus leaves every 30 mins.

So, there is a time interval of 30 mins between 2 buses.

Since, the next bus will leave at 9.35 am

⇒The previous bus would have left 9:05 am

When the clerk gave information,

10 mins were past since the bus had left.

So,

The Time would be = 9:05 am + 10 mins = 9:15 am

Hence, the clerk gave this information to the passenger at 9:15 am
