When asked the time of the day, a problem-posing professor
answered, " If you add one-eighth of the time from noon until now
to one-quarter the time from now until noon tomorrow,you get the time exactly."
What time was it?

• 5:20pm
  
  1/8x + 1/4(24*60 - x) = x
  
  Solving for x we get = 320 min
  that means 5 hrs and 20 min
  Time is : 5:20pm
