Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
At 3 o'clock, the minute hand is 15 min. spaces apart from the hour hand.
To be coincident, it must gain 15 min. spaces.
55 min. are gained in 60 min.
Then 15 min spaces are gained in = min.
Therefore, The hands are coincident at min. past 3 o'clock.
Correct Answer: 7:45 in the next morning
Explanation:
We know that the time difference between India and USA is 9 hrs 30 min.
India is 9:30 hrs ahead of USA.
Time in India = 4:15 + 9:30 = 13:45 PM.
Required Time after 18 hrs = 13:45 + 18 hrs = 7:45 AM.
Hence it is 7:45 AM on the next morning.
Correct Answer: 10
Explanation:
Angle traced by hour hand in hrs = =
Angle traced by min. hand in 20 min = =
Required angle = (130 - 120)º = 10º

Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs = 360º
Angle traced by hour hand in 5 hrs 10 min. i.e hrs = =
Correct Answer: 22
Explanation:
The hands of a clock point in opposite directions (in the same straight line) 11 times in every
12 hours. (Because between 5 and 7 they point in opposite directions at 6 o'clcok only).
So, in a day, the hands point in the opposite directions 22 times
