Allison always leaves her office at 5.00pm and reaches her hotel in an hour, while Brittany leaves the same hotel sometime after 5, meets Allison and reaches the same office at 6.00pm. On Wednesday, just when Brittany met Allison, she realized she had left her laptop. So she went back to the hotel, picked up her laptop and reached the office late. If Allison and Brittany always travel at constant rates, at what time did Brittany reach the office on Wednesday?
(1) Usually, when Allison and Brittany meet, Allison has already covered 2/3rd of the distance between the hotel and office.
(2) Brittany always leaves the hotel at exactly 5.30pm
P.S:
AFAIK, this Q can be solved by considering the both the statements individually. But thats not the right answer. Please explain.
