Step-by-Step Solution

The complete worked solution.

Every step explained - no skipped algebra.

A clock with only dots marking 3, 6, 9, and 12 positions, when kept upside down in front of a mirror, shows a reflection time of 4:50. To find the actual time, first find the mirror image of 4:50 by subtracting it from 12:00, which gives 7:10. Then, accounting for the clock being upside down (rotated 180 degrees), the actual time corresponds to 2:40.

Final Answer: Option B - 02:40
