Question

how many degrees will the minute hand move in the same time in which the hour hand moves 50 degrees?​

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 90 degrees between 9 and 12, the minute hand is on the 10 and the hour hand is 50/60 or 5/6 from the 11 to the 12. Between 10 and 11 there are (90 * 1/3) = 30 degrees. To this you have to add 5/6 of the degrees between 11 and 12 or (90 * 1/3 * 5/6) = 25. Therefore the answer is 30 + 25 = 55 degrees.
