Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 8.05 am

Reaching the place of meeting on Tuesday 15 min before 8.30 am.

Clearly, Anuj reached the place at 8:15 AM.

Anuj found himself half an hour earlier than the man who was 40 min late.

Clearly the man reached at 8:45 AM.

As the man was late by 40 minutes for the meeting, clearly the meeting was scheduled at 8:05 AM.

Hence, ‘8.05 am’ is the correct answer.
