Naveen has to leave office exactly after 20 minutes to exactly catch a train which leaves the station at 6.40 p.m. and it is 5.45 p.m. now.
Formula used:
Total travel time = Train departure time - (Current time + Time left to leave office)
Calculation:
Train departure time = 6.40 p.m.
Current time = 5.45 p.m.
Time left to leave office = 20 minutes
First, convert all times to minutes past 5.00 p.m.:
Train departure time = 6.40 p.m. = 100 minutes past 5.00 p.m.
Current time = 5.45 p.m. = 45 minutes past 5.00 p.m.
Time left to leave office = 20 minutes
Total travel time = Train departure time - (Current time + Time left to leave office)
⇒ Total travel time = 100 minutes - (45 minutes + 20 minutes)
⇒ Total travel time = 100 minutes - 65 minutes
⇒ Total travel time = 35 minutes
Therefore, the time it takes to travel from office to the station is 35 minutes.
Hence Option (3) is correct.
