A clock seen through a mirror shows 7 : 45. What is the correct time shown by the clock? |
4:15 5:17 6:15 6:17 |
4:15 |
The correct answer is Option (1) → 4:15 When a clock is seen through a mirror, the image is laterally inverted. Mirror Time Shortcut: Formula: Actual Time = 11:60 (which is the same as 12:00)− Mirror Image Time Mirror time = 7 : 45 Actual time = 11 : 60 - 7 : 45 Subtracting the minutes: 60 - 45 = 15 minutes Subtracting the hours: 11 - 7 = 4 hours So, the actual time is 4 : 15. |
