Question

At what time between 9 and 10 oclock will the hands of a watch be together?

Options:
A .  45 min. past 9
B .  50 min. past 9
C .  \(49\frac{1}{11} min. past 9\)
D .  \(48\frac{2}{11} min. past 9\)
Answer: Option C

To be together between 9 and 10 o'clock, the minute hand has to gain 45 min. spaces.


55 min. spaces gained in 60 min.


45 min. spaces are gained in \(\left(\frac{60}{55}\times45\right)min. or 49\frac{1}{11}min.\)


So, The hands are together at \(49\frac{1}{11} min. past 9\)
