Every hour a clock travels 6° extra if at 11 AM clock is showing the correct time then what time will be shown by a clock after 3 hours? Correct Answer 02:03 PM

The analogue clock is divided into 12 sectors, 1 – 12. One sector represents 30 degrees (360/12 = 30).

We know that in one minute,

Minute hand travels 6° and hour hand travels ½°.

After 3 hours clock will show 02:00 PM time. But the clock is defective so 6° × 3 = 18°

Therefore, the clock will show 02:03 PM time after 3 hours.

Hence, the correct answer is option 2) 02:03 PM.
