Q 1 - How much time does a watch gain per day, if its hands coincides in every 64 min.?
$\left ( \frac{720}{11} - x\right )\times\left ( \frac{60\times24}{x} \right )$ min.
Put x = 64, then $32\frac{8}{11}$ min. is correct.
Q 2 - At what time between 4 and 5 O`clock will the hands of a watch will point in opposite direction?
$\frac{60}{55}$ × 50 min. = 54 $\frac{6}{11}$ min.
Q 3 - Four bells ring at interval of 30 min, 1 hrs, 1$\frac{1}{2}$hrs, 1 hrs and 45 min respectively. All the bell rings simultaneously at 12 noon they will again ring simultaneously at.
L.C.M of 30, 60, 90 and 105 =1260 hence all the bells ring after 1260 min i.e at 9 am
Q 4 - If a clock is started at noon then what is the angle turned by hour hand at 3.45 pm?
1 min = $\frac{180}{360}$
225 min = $\frac{180}{360}$ × 225 = 112.5o
Q 5 - If two hands are at 15o, they are 15 min space apart. It happens how many times in every 1 hour?
Q 6 - If a clock strikes at 7 O`clock taking 9 sec in order to strike 10 at the same rate what should be the time taken?
Time taken for 1 interval = 9 sec
Time taken for 9 intervals = 9 × 9 = 81 sec.
Angle turned by hour hand in 30 minute = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 30 = 15o
Therefore required angle = 30 + 15 = 45o
Q 8 - If a clock started at noon then what should be the angle at 7.25 pm?
(7 + $\frac{25}{12}$) × 30 = $\frac{445}{2}$ = 222$\frac{5}{2}$
Q 9 - A clock was late by 5 minutes at noon on Sunday, but on Friday at 3P.M it is found that clock was fast by 10 minutes. Find the time when time was correct.
It is 123 hours from Sunday noon to Friday 3P.M. Therefore clock gained 15 minutes in 123 hrs, thus 5 minute can be gained in $\frac{120}{15}$ × 5 hrs = 40 hrs = on Tuesday at 5 A.M
Q 10 - At what time between 3 O`clock and 4 O`clock will the hands of a clock be in opposite direction?
A - 49$\frac{1}{11}$ min past 3
B - 50$\frac{1}{11}$ min past 3
$\frac{\left ( 5n + 30 \right ) \times 12}{11}$ (n>6) min past n
So 49$\frac{1}{11}$ min past 3 is correct.
