E) None of these


Sagot :

Answer:

B) 9:35

Step-by-step explanation:

the travel time we get by dividing the distance by the speed

distance / distance/time = time

so,

60 / 80 = 6/8 = 3/4 = 0.75 hours or 45 minutes.

since she arrived 20 minutes late, that means at 10:20 am, she left home 45 - 20 = 25 minutes before 10:00am.

and that is 9:35 am.
