Question

In the time in which the second hand covers 3960 degrees, how many degrees does the hour hand move?

Answer 1

3960
-------- × 0.5°
60

= 66 × 0.5° = 33° is the answer

Answer 2

In the time in which the second hand covers 3960 degrees, hour hand move 1.1 degree

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 second = 1/60 minutes

1. Hour = 60 minutes

1 minutes = 1/60 hour

1 hour = 60*60 seconds

1 second = 1/60*60.

= 1/3600 hour

If second hands cover = 3960 degree

And a minute hand covers = 3960/60

= 66 degree

Then hour hand covers = 3960/3600

= 1.1 degree
