The initial time is:

03:45 a.m.

We have to add 5:50 to that time

We can do that in several ways.

We'll be adding the hours and the minutes separately, and then make any necessary adjustment

03:45 a.m.

+ 05:50

Let's add the hours:

3+5= 8

Now add the minutes

45 + 50 = 95

Since the minutes cannot exceed 59, we subtract 60

95 - 60 = 35

But since we subtracted 60 minutes, we must add one to the hour:

8 + 1 = 9

Thus, the final time is

09:35 a.m.
