A clock is set to show the correct time at 7 am Monday. The clock losses 15 min in 24 h. What will be the true time when the clock indicates 6 am on the following Friday ?
-
- 6 : 15 am Friday
- 6 : 30 am Friday
- 7 : 00 am Friday
- 7 : 15 am Friday
Correct Option: C
Time from 7 am on a day to 6 am after 3 days is 95 h.
Now , 23 h 45 min of the clock in question = 24 h of correct clock
i..e., 95/4 h of the clock in question = 24 h of correct clock
∴ 95 h of the clock in question = (24 x 4/95 x 95) h of correct clock = 96 h
So, the correct time is 96 h from 7 am, Monday, ie., 7 am, Friday.
