Answer 1

Answer:

11 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

it looks like digits are repeated in question so assuming

question as below

Clock is set right at 5 a.M. The clock loses 16 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the right time when the clock indicates 10 p.M on the 4th day

Clock losses 16 minutes in 24 hrs

24 hrs = 24 × 60 = 1440 mins

clock display 1440 - 16 = 1424 min against actual time of 1440 min

Clock indicate 10 PM on 4th day

so time displayed by clock = 24 + 24 + 24 + 17 = 89 hrs

89 hrs = 89× 60 min = 5340 mins

when clock display 1424 mins then actual time = 1440 mins

when clock display 1 min then actual time = 1440/1424 mins

when clock display 5340 mins then actual time = (1440/1424)×5340 mins

= 5400 mins

Times lost by clock = 5400 - 5340 = 60 min = 1hr

so when clock displayed 10 PM then right time will be 10 PM + 1 hr = 11 PM
