Q: In every 30 minutes the time of a watch increases by 3 minutes. After setting the correct time at 5 am what time will the watch show after 6 hours?

We know that , In every 30 minutes the time of watch increased by 3 minutes = 12 × 3 = 36 minutes So the time after 6 hours = 5 am + 6 hours + 30 minutes = 11 : 36 am. Therefore , required time will be 11 : 36 am.

10 : 54 am
11 : 30 am
11 : 36 am
11 : 42 am

Correct Answer: 11 : 36 am

Explanation:

We know that ,
In every 30 minutes the time of watch increased by 3 minutes = 12 × 3 = 36 minutes
