Question:

At what time between 7 and 8 the hands of a clock are opposite to each other?

Options:

7 : 27\(\frac{3}{11}\)

7 : 10\(\frac{10}{11}\)

7 : 5\(\frac{5}{11}\)

7 : 05

Correct Answer:

7 : 5\(\frac{5}{11}\)

Explanation:

M  = \(\frac{60}{11}\) × (Initial hour ± 6)

M  = \(\frac{60}{11}\) (7 – 6)

M  = \(\frac{60}{11}\) × 1 = \(\frac{60}{11}\)

= 5\(\frac{5}{11}\) min

⸫  correct answer is 7 hr 5\(\frac{5}{11}\) min.
