As the Bus is travelling 18mph it takes 1 & 1/2 hr to reach destination.  
Bus stays there for 1/2 hr.  
As in the return journy bus travelled with the 50% fast spped meance with the speed of 27mph. meance it took 1 hr to return 
For total journy it took 1&1/2+1/2+1hr=3 hr. 
therefore 8+3 =11  
Bus returns as 11 a.m.

bus started at 8 am stays in destination 30 min

its speed 18mph

distence 27m

bus travels 50% of fast speed

time=d/v=27/18=3/2h=1h 30m

after 50%

time=(27/(9+18))=1h

tot time 1h+ih 30m+30m=3h

ans=11am

Initiall start time -- 8.00 am

start  ----------------------------------- destination

                  ( distance --> 27 milies), (speed -18mph)

so time- distance/speed , i.e 27/18 hrs  ->3/2 ---> 1.5 hrs --> bus will reach the destination at 9.30 am .

Since it waits 30 min in destination .. time = (9.30+.30)-->10.00 am

so ,the bus starts from destination at 10.00 am

while travelling back speed  is 50% higher than initiall , so 18+50% 0f 18 -->18+9-->27 mph, so timetaken -->27/27-- 1 hr.. so it will reach back in 10.00 am + 1 hr --> 11.00 am(Ans)

Cannot be 11.00 A.M.

It is 1.00 P.M.

Time taken for onward jpurney is 1.5 hrs.

Stay is 0.5 hrs.

Return journey is 3 hrs.

Adding 5 hrs with starting time, bus will reach at 1.00 P.M

Total time taken by it is following :

1.5 (to reach at destination) + 0.5 ( talking halt at station) + 1 (return with 50% speed)

so the total time taken by it is 3 hr

current time is 8.00 a.m + 3 hr = 11 a.m.

So 11 a.m. is the right answer

A bus started from bus stand at 8.00am, and after staying for 30 minutes at a destination, it returned back to the bus stand. The destination is 27 miles from the bus stand. The speed of the bus is 18mph. During the return journey bus travels with 50% faster speed. At what time does it return to the bus stand?
