Right well you didn't even know how to do it, so I guess that's a lot better.

Better to give no answer than an obviously wrong one, or an 'estimate', which is the polite way of saying, "I can't be arsed to bother solving this problem".

I find that once you know the method for solving something, it is often unneccessary to bother with plugging and chugging. At least he tried something.

90 seconds? Obviously a wrong answer. The husband's faster than the wife, so the train can't take longer to pass her than him. It only takes about 2 seconds to figure that out. I find his approach (just spewing an answer at random) pointless, and your approach lazy. I'd much rather give no answer than do either of the above.
