Q1. A clock is set right at 8 am. The clock gains 10 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the true time when the clock indicates 1 pm on the following day?
Answer: 12:48 pm
Explanation: The clock gains 10 minutes in 24 hours. So, in 29 hours, it gains (10 / 24) * 29 = 12.08 minutes. Hence, when it shows 1 pm on the next day, true time is 12:48 pm.
