I washed my car at 6 last night
"I washed my car at 6 last night." (sentence founded in my grammar book)
Does it mean that:
a) at 6 last night I finished washing my car and in that time the car was clean, or
b) at 6 last night I started to wash my car
Whish answer is correct ? The book claims that answer b is correct - I have doubts because I always thought that past simple describes finished actions.
help plz.
