9:30 AM?
Since total is 100 Km and A started early so minus 20 Km.
Now A and B travel 80Km towards each other, so total speed = (20+25)kmh
Time =Distance/Speed = 80/55 = 1.45 = 1 hour 27 min
Time they meet = 8AM + 1 hr 27min = 9:30 AM approx

My bad, the distance must be 110 km for these option choices.
I have made the required changes, thanks
