Answer:

24*5 = 120 2 pm hope the answer correct

Answer 2

Answer:

1:48 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A fast clock gains 12 minutes every normal hour,

and the fast clock shows the correct time at 1 PM.

To find the correct time when fast clock register 2 PM.

Now,

As per given condition,

After 1 hours it show 1 hour 12 minutes.

∵ In 60 minutes it shows more = 12 minutes

  In 1 minutes it shows more = 12/60 minutes

                                               = 1/5 minutes

                                               = 60 × (1/5) seconds

                                               = 12 seconds.

It means its per minutes is 12 seconds faster to real clock.

Or it is 1/5 part faster .

So,

when it show 2PM then the actual time  is 1:48 PM.

Therefore, the actual time of real clock when the fast clock shows 2 PM is 1:48 PM.
