Q:

A watch which gains 5 seconds in 3 minutes was set right at 7 a.m. In the afternoon of the same day, when the watch indicated quarter past 4 o'clock, the true time is:

A) 4pm	B) 5pm
C) 6pm	D) 7pm

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4pm

Explanation:

Time from 7 am to 4.15 pm = 9 hrs 15 min = $\frac{37}{4}$ hrs

3 min. 5 sec. of this clock = 3 min. of the correct clock.

Now 3min.5sec. is $\frac{37}{720}$ hrs of this clock = 3 min.is $\frac{1}{20}$ hrs of the correct clock

$\frac{37}{4}$ hrs of clock = $(\frac{1}{20} \times \frac{720}{37} \times \frac{37}{4})$ hrs of the correct clock.

= 9 hrs of the correct clock.

$\therefore$ The correct time is 9 hrs after 7 am. i.e., 4 pm.
