Grammatically, yes. But the sentence is nonsense.

It's fine.

If you can accept "knew" as related to "remembered", then it's grammatically correct: "without delay" describes the verb. "He asked me, but I didn't know the answer" The question is whether the answer should have always been known, or if the answer was forgotten temporarily... get me? :) Sorry, your professor should get out more.
