Question:

Anuj notices that the reflection of the hands of the wall clock in a mirror is showing the time to be 6 hours 15 minutes. What is the actual time shown by the clock?

Options:

5:45

5:15

6:45

6:15

Correct Answer:

5:45

Explanation:

Given time,

6:15

We have a concept,

If it is 12 hrs clock, then subtract the given time from 11:60 hrs.

If it is 24 hrs clock, then subtract the given time from 23:60 hrs.

Here it is 24 hrs clock, therefore, 23:60 – 6:15 = 17:45

Hence, actual time will be 17:45 or 5:45
