Question:

How many times the hands of a clock overlap in a day?

Options:

24

11

22

44

Correct Answer:

22

Explanation:

In 1 hour the hands of a clock coincide only once but from 11 to 1 the hands of a clock coincide only at 12 o’clock. So in 12 hours the hands of a clock coincide 11 times.

Therefore, in a day hands of a clock coincide 22 times.
