  • Question
  • When the time in the wall clock in 3:25 pm, the acute angle between the hour hand and minute hand is?


  • Options
  • A. 60°
  • B. 52.5°
  • C. 47.5°
  • D. 42°

  • Correct Answer
  • 42° 

    Explanation

    Since, angle between two number is 360°/12 = 30°
    When the time is 3:25 pm, the minute hand will be at 5 and will have moved 60° from 3 and hour hand would be between 3 and 4 it will move 30° in 60 min and so in 25 min it would have moved 30 x 25/60 = 12.5°
    So, angle between two hand will be 60 - 12.5 = 47.5°
