3) 13 minutes 50 seconds

In 11 hrs, my watch gained 55 mins.
It mean at 7PM, the diff in my watch and father's watch was 90-55=35 mins.
so my watch was showing 7:35PM at start from home and shows 7:50 PM when I reached office.
Time taken during journey = 15*60/65= 180/13 mins or approx 13 mins 50 secs
