A watch loose 1 minute a day. It indicated right at 12 am. what time would it have lost by 8 pm?
(I need explanation)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation: Time lost in 1 day(24 hours) = 1 minute( 60 seconds)

Therefore time lost in 12 hours = 30 seconds

Time lost in in 8 hours = 30 x 2/3 = 20 seconds

Hence, total time lost till 8P.M. = (20 + 30) seconds = 50 seconds
