Answer:
I am not sure but i think urmil's watch was showing 9 p.m. at that time
Step-by-step explanation:
see, we know that a day has 24 hours so ,
Lets say that the no. of hours passed = x
So , the equation will be -
24 - x= 1/7*x
= 1/7*x+x= 24
By taking LCM ,
x+7x/7=24
8x/7=24
8x=24*7
x=24*7/8
x=3*7
x=21
So 21 hours already passed from the day
so no. of hours left =24-21=3
We know that a day ends by 12 a.m.
so we subtract 3 hours and we get 9 p.m.
Hope it helps
