From the beginning, the next term comes by adding prime numbers in a sequence of 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13... to its previous term. But 165 will not be in the series as it must be replaced by 166 since 153+13 = 166.

Number of ways of selecting (3 consonants out of 7) and (2 vowels out of 4) = (7C3*4C2) 

= 210. 

Number of groups, each having 3 consonants and 2 vowels = 210. 

Each group contains 5 letters. 

Number of ways of arranging 5 letters among themselves = 5! = 120 

Required number of ways = (210 x 120) = 25200.

Time from 8 a.m. on a day to 1 p.m. on the following day = 29 hours. 

24 hours 10 min. of this clock = 24 hours of the correct clock.
