★ 240° may be. If wrong then let me know.
★ Because A clock takes the shape of a circle, which is composed of 360 degrees. There are 12 numbers on a clock that represent the hours. With this in mind, we can say that each number represents an angle. The measure of the angle between each number is given by 360÷12=30.
If it is 8:30, then the minute hand is pointing towards 6 while the hour hand points towards 8.
Therefore, we can say that the angle between the two hands is 30⋅8=240 degrees.
