Question

the minute hand turns through how many degrees from the digit 2 to 11 o'clock please show the steps and answer it quickly

Answer 1

Hours of movement of minute hand=11-2=9
Total hours which clock shows =12
Movement hours in fraction= 9/12
Total degrees of clock=360°
Degrees between 2'o clock to 11'o clock
=9/12×360°
=3/4×360°
=3×90°
=270° Ans.

Answer 2

Answer:

The distance traveled by the minute hand from digit 2 to digit 11 in the clock = 270°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Distance moved by the minute hand is from digit 2 to digit 11

To find,

The degrees moved by the minute hand

Solution:

The digit '2' corresponds to 10 minutes in the clock and the digit '11' corresponds to 55minutes in the clock.

The distance traveled by the minute hand when it traveled from digit '2' to digit '11'  = 55-10 = 45minutes

The distance traveled by the minute hand in 60 minutes = 360

The distance traveled by the minute hand in 1 minute = $\frac{360}{60}$degrees = 6°

The distance traveled by the minute hand in 45 minutes = 45 ×  6° = 270°

∴ The distance traveled by the minute hand from digit 2 to digit 11 in the clock = 270°
