Question:

An ordinary analog Clock seen through a mirror shows the time as Quarter past Nine. What will be the correct time at that instant?

Options:

3 : 45

3 : 43

2 : 45

2 : 42

Correct Answer:

2 : 45

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 2 : 45

For a mirror image of an analog clock, the actual time is calculated using:

$\text{Actual time} = 11:60 - \text{Mirror time}$

Given mirror time = 9:15

$11:60 - 9:15 = 2:45$

So, the correct time at that instant is 2 : 45
