LOL I laugh at holypie using the multiple choice answers to deduce the answer for number 10. Weak sauce.
I drew a little chart.
Now----------------------8 PM
Let's call the distance between Now and 8PM X.
Mark your midpoint, and then 1.5 hours before that is a value, let's call it K.
X = 3K according to the question.
And then abuse your chart, the first little distance between Now and K is X/3, the distance between K and midpoint is 1.5 hours, and the distance between midpoint and 8 PM is X/2.
So then the first half, X/3 + 1.5 = X/2
And solve x as 9. 9 hours before 8 PM is 11 AM.
Damn straight I'm a genius.
