Question:

At what time are the hands of clock at 48o angle between 4 and 5 o’clock?

Options:

4:13\(\frac{1}{11}\) o’clock

4:32\(\frac{8}{11}\) o’clock

4:30\(\frac{8}{11}\) o’clock

4:10\(\frac{10}{11}\) o’clock

Correct Answer:

4:13\(\frac{1}{11}\) o’clock

Explanation:

T =  \(\frac{60}{55}\)(5 × H ± distance)              1 min = 6o

   =    \(\frac{60}{55}\)(5 × 4  ±  8o)                   48o means 8 minutes

   =    \(\frac{12}{11}\)(20 ±  8)

       Take both sign respectively,

  \(\frac{12}{11}\) × 12  =  13\(\frac{1}{11}\)    \(\frac{12 × 28}{11}\)  =  30\(\frac{6}{11}\)

 So, correct answer is option (A).
