At what time between 2 and 3' O clock are the hand of clock together exactly ?
Hour hand position = 90 + min/2 (every 60 minutes the hour hand moves 30 degrees)
Minute hand = minutes x 6 (every 60 minutes the minute hand moves 360 degrees)
90 + min/2 = min x 6
180 + min = min x 12
180 + min = 12 min
180 = 11 min
16.36 = min 3:00 + 16.36 min = 3:16 and 21.6 sec
Ooops sorry....I went between 3 and 4 oclock!! d'Oh ! See answers below:
0=abs((30*2) - (5.5*M)), solve for M
M =120 / 11 =10.909090...... minutes after 2 O'Clock.
60 + min/2 = min x 6
120 + min = 12min
min = 10.90
2 10 and 54.5 seconds
