A Clock Is Set At 5 A.m. The Clock Loses 16 Minutes In 24 Hours. What Will Be The True Time When The Clock Indicates 10 P.m. On 4th Day?

Answer»

Time from 5 a.m on a DAY to 10 p.m.on 4th day = 89 hours.

Now 23 hrs 44 min. of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock.

Therefore 356 / 15 hrs of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock.

89 hrs of this clock = (24 X 15/356 x 89) hrs

= 90 hrs

So, the correct time is 11 p.m.

Time from 5 a.m on a day to 10 p.m.on 4th day = 89 hours.

Now 23 hrs 44 min. of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock.

Therefore 356 / 15 hrs of this clock = 24 hours of correct clock.

89 hrs of this clock = (24 x 15/356 x 89) hrs

= 90 hrs

So, the correct time is 11 p.m.
