c. 49 4/11 min past 3

d. 49 2/11 min past 3

Answer 1

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

at 3 o clock the hands of the watch are 15 min apart

to be in opposite direction they should maintain 30min apart

min hand gains 45 min

55 min spaces are gained in 60 min then

45 min spaces are gained in 60/55 * 45 = 49 1/11 min past 3
