Given: Time given is 8:54.

Concept used: For mirror image time is given by

(11-hours) : (60-minutes)

Calculation:

Hours = 8

Minutes = 54

(11 - 8) : (60 - 54)

3 : 06 

Thus, actual time is 3 : 06.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Additional InformationIf it is 12-hour clock, then subtract the given time from 11:60 hrs. 

If it is 24-hours clock, then subtract the given time from 23:60 hrs.
