Answer:

11:22 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

By means of a statement we can know that:

After an hour and 8 minutes, he stays 8 minutes behind

Which means that in 2 hours, it will take 16 minutes

If it is 10:30, it means that it is 6:30 hours later, that is to say 6.5.

therefore 6.5 x 8 = 52

Which means that at 10:30 the clock is 52 minutes late

So the correct time is 11:22 AM
