A watch is losing 5 seconds for every minute. It was corrected at 10 a.m. on a Sunday. What is the time in this watch at Sunday 8
p.m.?
Options:
7:50 p.m
7:10 p.m
7:40 p.m
8:10 p.m​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer will be 7:10p.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the watch loses 5 seconds per minute, then 60 ^ 5=300 sec=5minutes/hour

10a.m. to 8 p. m. = 10 hours

10^5 = 50 minutes

8 - 50 = 7 :10 p. m.
