If it's 35 miles, and you drive 35 miles in an hour, what would you think?

rate * time = distance.

rate = 35 mph
distance = 35 miles.
35 * time = 35
time = 35 / 35 = 1 hour.

this assumes an overall average of 35 miles per hour from the time you get in your car and start moving to the time you stop moving and get out of your car.

you also have to add the time it takes for you to get from your home to the car and from your car to the office.
