Correct Option: A
We can say that ,
Total number of hours from Monday at 8 am to the following Wednesday at 6 pm = 24 × 2 + 10 = 58 hours
24 hours 10 minutes of this clock are the same as 24 hours of a correct clock.
145 | hours of the incorrect clock = 24 hours of correct clock. |
6 |
∴ 1 hours of the incorrect clock = | 24 x 6 | hours of correct clock |
145 |
⇒ 58 hours of the incorrect clock = | 24 x 6 | x 58 hours of correct clock |
145 |
58 hours of the incorrect clock = 57 | 3 | hours of correct clock |
5 |
Thus, the correct time on the following Wednesday will be
5 : 36 pm.
