Answer 2

Answer:

The minute hand must be moved 40 minutes in clockwise direction or 240° in the clockwise direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time at Sharon's friend's house = 18 : 30

Actual time = 40 minutes past 18 : 30

                   = 40 minutes + 18 : 30

                   = 19 : 10

We need to find how much further the minute hand be set.

We know that for every 30 minutes, the angle formed is 180°

Therefore, for every 40 minutes, the angle is = $\frac{180}{30}$ * 40

                                                                           = 240°

Therefore, the minute hand must be moved 40 minutes in clockwise direction or 240° in the clockwise direction.
