A - 12 Oclock

B - 9 pm

C - 11 pm

D - 2 pm

### Explanation

$\left ( 24 \times \frac{15}{356} \times 89 \right )$ hrs = 90 hrs of correct clock, correct time will be mid night.

Q 2 - In between 11 and 12 O clock, how many times the two hands will coincide with each other?

A - 60 min.

B - 45 min.

C - 50 min.

D - 55 min.

### Explanation

60 min = 12 hours at which the hands will coincide with each other.

Q 3 - What is the angle between minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when time is 4.20?

A - 0o

B - 10o

C - 5o

D - 20o

### Explanation

Angle traced by hour hand in 13/3 hrs = ( $\frac{360}{12}$ × $\frac{13}{3}$) = 130o

Angle traced by min hand in 20 min = $\frac{360}{12}$ × 20 = 120o

Therefore required angle = 130 - 120 = 10o

### Explanation

(5n ± x) × $\frac{12}{11}$ min past n.

= (5 × 5 ± 6) × $\frac{12}{11}$ min past 5

= 33$\frac{9}{11}$ min past 5 and 19$\frac{12}{11}$ min past 5

Q 5 - What is the value of angle covered by minute the hand in one minute?

A - 5o

B - 6o

C - 7o

D - 8o

### Explanation

$\frac{360}{60}$ = 6o

Q 6 - At what time between 4 and 3 Oclock will the hands of a clock point in opposite direction?

A - $\frac{549}{11}$ min past 4

B - 601 min past 4

C - $\frac{600}{11}$ min past 4

D - 602 min past 4

### Explanation

(5n + 30 )×$\frac{12}{11}$, n = 4

$\frac{50 \times 12}{11}$ min. past 4 = $\frac{600}{11}$

Q 7 - At what time between 7 and 8 Oclock will the hands of a clock be in opposite direction?

A - 20$\frac{10}{11}$ minute past 7

B - 30$\frac{10}{11}$ minute past 7

C - 10$\frac{10}{11}$ minute past 7

D - 15$\frac{10}{11}$ minute past 7

### Explanation

From the figure it is clear that the minute hand has to gain 10 minute space in order to be in opposite of hour hand, therefore 10 minute space can be gained in $\frac{60}{55}$ × 10 = 10$\frac{10}{11}$

Q 8 - Ram takes 15 minutes to reach Madhus house, by walking. while he takes only 8 min to reach Madhus house by driving a vehicle. What is the difference of separation of time?

A - 8 min

B - 7 min

C - 6 min

D - 5 min

### Explanation

(15 - 8) = 7 min.

Q 9 - Calculate the time from 10.15 a.m to 11.30 p.m on Wednesday?

A - 13 hrs 30 min

B - 13 hrs 25 min

C - 13 hrs 20 min

D - 13 hrs 15 min

### Explanation

Total hour = 11.30 – 10.15 = 1.15

12.00 + 1.15 = 13 hrs 15 min.

Q 10 - The minute hand of a clock overtakes the hour hand at an interval of 63 min of the correct time. How much time does a clock gain or loss in a day?

A - 55$\frac{8}{17}$ min

B - 56$\frac{8}{17}$ min

C - 56$\frac{7}{17}$ min

D - 58$\frac{7}{17}$ min

### Explanation

($\frac{720}{11}$ - x) × ($\frac{60 \times 24}{x}$) min; here x = 63 so, option (b) is correct
