Question

A watch gains 5 minutes in one hour and was set right at 8 AM. What time will it show at 8PM on the same day​

Answer 1

Answer:

A correct clock would have completed 12 hours by 8 pm. But the faster clock actually covers 5 min. extra in one hour. So, it will cover 12×5=60 minutes extra. Therefore, when the correct clock would show 8 pm, the faster clock will show 60 minutes extra i.e. 9 pm.
