Answer:

12:45 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find out the amount of time it takes to drive 90 miles at 60 mph.

speed = distance/time

time * speed = distance

time = distance/speed

time = 90 miles / 60 mph

time = 1.5 hour = 90 minutes

It takes 1.5 hour, or 90 minutes, to drive 90 miles at a speed of 60 mph.

To get there at 2:00 pm, he should have left at 12:30 pm.

He got there 15 minutes late, so he must have left 15 minutes late.

He left at 12:45 pm.

Answer: 12:45 pm
