A) 1 10/11 minutes past 2 B) 1 10/11 minutes past 3
C) 1 11/10 minutes past 3 D) 11 10/11 minutes past 2

Required time T = 211H×30 + Ao minutes past H.
Here H - initial position of hour hand = 2 (since 2 O'clock)
A° = Required angle = 0° (Since it coincides)

 

T = 2112×30 + 0o minutes past 2 

 

=> 11011 minutes past 2
