1. Find the time Danish reached his workplace.

Reporting time is 09 3009\ 30. Reaching 1010 minutes before means he arrived at 09 2009\ 20.

2. Calculate the total duration of the journey.

From 07 5507\ 55 to 09 2009\ 20:
07 5507\ 55 to 08 0008\ 00 is 55 minutes.
08 0008\ 00 to 09 0009\ 00 is 6060 minutes.
09 0009\ 00 to 09 2009\ 20 is 2020 minutes.
Total duration = 5+60+20=855 + 60 + 20 = 85 minutes.

3. Determine which combination of travel options gives a total of 85 minutes.

He must take one option from Home to Interchange (A or B) and one from Interchange to Workplace (C or D).
Option A + Option C = 15+80=9515 + 80 = 95 minutes
Option A + Option D = 15+70=8515 + 70 = 85 minutes
Option B + Option C = 10+80=9010 + 80 = 90 minutes
Option B + Option D = 10+70=8010 + 70 = 80 minutes
Since the total duration is 8585 minutes, he took Options A and D.

Answer

Option A and D (option 2)
