Q 1 - At what point of time after 3 O`clock hour hand and the minute hand are at right angle for the first time?
Answer : D
Explanation
( 5n + 15) × $\frac{12}{11}$, here n = 3 therefore we get 32$\frac{8}{11}$ min past 3.
Q 2 - At what time between 7 and 8 O` clock will the hands of a clock be in the same straight line but not together?
B - 5 $\frac{3}{11}$ min. past 7
Answer : D
Explanation
$\frac{60}{55}$ × 5 = 5$\frac{5}{11}$ min. past 7
Q 3 - Ayush leaves his house at 20 min. to 7 in the morning reaches Tushar`s house in 25 min. They finish their breakfast in another 15 mins and leave for office which takes another 35 min. at what time they leave Tushar`s house to their office?

Q 4 - Number of hours and minutes from 6.20 am to 9.30 pm on the same day is
Answer : A
Explanation
total 9.30 6.20 = 3.10
12.00 + 3.10 = 15 hours 10 minutes
Q 5 - In 12 hrs, how many times both hands in opposite direction can be observed?
Answer : B
Explanation
Since in each interval, hands come opposite to each other once at a time. In 12 hours, there are 11 intervals, hence hands will be 11 times opposite in direction.
Q 6 - At what time between 4 and 3 O`clock will the hands of a clock point in opposite direction?
A - $\frac{549}{11}$ min past 4
Answer : C
Explanation
(5n + 30 )×$\frac{12}{11}$, n = 4
$\frac{50 \times 12}{11}$ min. past 4 = $\frac{600}{11}$
Q 7 - What should be the angle between two hands of a clock at 7.20 a.m?
Answer : D
Explanation
30(7-$\frac{20}{5}$) + $\frac{20}{2}$ = 30 × 3 + 10 = 100o
Q 8 - What is the value of angle that is covered by minute hand in every 5 minute?
Answer : A
Explanation
$\frac{360}{60}$ = 6o in one minute
5 min = 6 × 5 = 30o
Q 9 - The minute hand of a clock overtakes the hour hand at an interval of 70 min of the correct time. How much time in a day does the clock gain or loss?
A - $\frac{7200}{77}$ min gain
B - $\frac{7300}{77}$ min loss
Answer : C
Explanation
$\left ( \frac{720}{11} - x \right ) \times\left ( \frac{60 \times 24}{x} \right )$ min
$\left ( \frac{720}{11} - 70 \right ) \times\left ( \frac{60 \times 24}{70} \right )$ min = -$\frac{7200}{77}$ min(loss)
Q 10 - At what time between 3 O`clock and 4 O` clock will the hands of a clock be 4 min apart?
A - 20$\frac{8}{11}$ min past 3 and 12 min past 3
B - 20$\frac{7}{11}$ min past 3 and 11 min past 3
Answer : A
Explanation
(5n ± x) × $\frac{12}{11}$ past n = (5 × 3 ± 4) × $\frac{12}{11}$ = 20 $\frac{8}{11}$ min past 3 and 12 min past 3
