A clock is set right at 10 am. The clock gain 10 min in a day. What will be the true time when the watch indicates 3 pm the next day ?

- 12 min past 2 pm
- 45 min past 2 pm
- 48 min past 2 pm
- 30 min past 2 pm
Correct Option: C
Time from 10 am to 3 pm of the next day = 29 h
Now, 24 h 10 min of the clock in question = 24 h of the correct clock
i.e., 145 h of the clock in question = 24 h of the correct clock
29 h of the clock in question = 24 x (6/145) x 29) h of correct clock = 28 h 48 min correct clock
So, the correct time is 28 h 48 min after 10 am i.,e 48 min past 2 pm.
