SSC CGL 2016 (Tier 1) Previous Year Question Paper (11-Sep-2016) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
7:20 Α.Μ

Step 1: Determine Ram's arrival time at Kunal's house.

Ram leaves his house at 20 minutes to seven, which means 6:40 AM. He takes 25 minutes to reach Kunal's house. Therefore, he arrives at Kunal's house at 6:40 AM + 25 minutes = 7:05 AM.

Step 2: Calculate the time they finish breakfast.

They spend 15 minutes having breakfast. So, they finish breakfast at 7:05 AM + 15 minutes = 7:20 AM.

Step 3: Determine their office departure time.

Therefore, they leave Kunal's house to go to the office at 7:20 AM.

Step 4: Eliminate incorrect options.

  • Option 1 (7:40 AM) is incorrect because it's after they finished breakfast.
  • Option 3 (7:45 AM) is incorrect because it's also after breakfast and includes additional time.
  • Option 4 (8:15 AM) is incorrect as it includes the travel time to the office.

Therefore, the correct answer is 7:20 AM.
