I'll say it is minutes before 12 noon
50 minutes ago, it was minutes before noon
and, minutes before noon, it was
minutes past 9 AM
Between 9AM and noon, there are 180 minutes
minutes past 9AM is minutes
before noon, and also equals
minutes
It is 26 minutes before noon
check answer:
34 minutes ago, it was 11 AM
50 minutes ago, it was 16 minutes before 11 AM
It is given that minutes past 9AM is this time also
60 minutes past 9AM is 10 AM
44 minutes past 10 AM is 16 min before 11 AM
OK
