Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"It should be the following day it cannot be next day"
Time from 8 am of a particular day to 1 pm on the following day = 29 h
Now, the clock gain 10 min in 24 h it means that 24 h 10 min of this clock is equal to 24 h of the correct clock.
145 / 6 h of this clock = 24 h of the correct clock
Therefore,
29 h of this clock = 24/145 * 6 * 29
= 28 h 48 min of correct clock.
29 h of the clock = 28 h 48 min of the correct clock it means that the clock in question is 12 min faster than the correct clock. Therefore, when clock indicates 1 pm, the correct time will be 48 min past 12
12:48 pm
