Solution

Time of wake up = 5.20 a.m = 5 hour 20 minutes

Time spends = 35 minutes

Then the time = 5 hour 55 minutes

Travelling time to reach railway station = 15 minutes

Now the time will be = 5 hours 70 minutes

= 5 hours (60 + 10) minutes

= 5 hours + (1 hour 10 minutes)

= 6 hours 10 minutes

= 6.10 a.m

The departure time of the train to get ready = 6.0 a.m.

∴ She will not be able to catch the train.
