Mrs Green left for work at 7:45 am, half an hour earlier than normal. She arrived at work at 8:25 am, worked for 8 hours then went home. The trip home took ten minutes longer than the trip to work. When she came home she thought the clock was wrong, it showed 5 pm. What time did Mrs Green usually leave for work?
