hi friends
this is the step by step solution:

                        a bus cover 27 mile with 18 mph in =27/18= 1 hour 30 min.
                                                and it wait at stand =30 min.
                        affter this speed of return increase by 50% so

                                                     50%of 18 mph=9mph

      Total speed of returnig=18+9=27
        Then in return it take 27/27=1 hour
        then total time in joureny=1+1:30+00:30 =3 hour
        so it will come at 8+3 hour=11 a.m.

   So Ans==11 a.m
