9 : 05 am

Correct Answer:

9 : 15 am

Explanation:

A bus leaves every 30 mins

Ramesh told Anil that a bus has left 10 mins ago, this means that the next one has to leave after 20 mins.

Also, he told that next bus will leave at 9 : 35 am, thus after 20 minutes time will be 9:35 am. So, current time = 9:15 am

The correct answer is option (3) : 9 : 15 am
