At what time between 3 and 4 o'clock do the minute and hours hands of a clock coincide?

Hour hand starts at  900   and moves 1/2 degree per minute

minute hand starts at 00 and moves 6o per minute

 

90 + 1/2x = 6 x       where x is minutes after 3:00

90 =  5 1/2x

x = 16.37 minutes

 

3:16: 22
