Q:

A clock is started at 11 a.m. By 600 seconds past 6 p.m, the hour hand has turned through ?

A) 155 degrees B) 175 degrees
C) 205 degrees D) 215 degrees
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 215 degrees

Explanation:

The total angle traced by the hour hand is the angle traced in 7 hours and 10 minutes.
We know that the angle traced by the hour hand in one hour is 30º and in one minute is 1/2º.
Therefore, (30º x 7) + (10 x 1/2º) = 215º is the angle traced by the hour hand.

Q:

We want to round off x, a Float to an Int value. The correct way to do so would be

A) Y = ( int ) ( x + 0.5 ) ; B) Y = int ( x + 0.5) ;
C) Y = ( int ) x + 0.5; D) Y = ( int ) ( ( int ) x + 0.5 )
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Y = ( int ) ( x + 0.5 ) ;

Explanation:

Rounding off a value means replacing it by a nearest value that is approximately equal or smaller or greater to the given number.

 

y = (int)(x + 0.5); here x is any float value. To roundoff, we have to typecast the value of x by using (int)

 

Example:

 

#include

 

int main ()

 

{

 

  float x = 2.6;

 

  int y = (int)(x + 0.5);

 

  printf ("Result = %d\n", y );

 

  return 0;

 

}

 

Result : 3
