In this type of problems the formuae is (5*x+ or - t)*12/11 Here x is replaced by the first interval of given time. Here x is 5. t is spaces apart Case 1 : (5*x + t) * 12/11 (5*5 + 3) * 12/11 28 * 12/11 = 336/11= min therefore the hands will be 3 min apart at 31 5/11 min past 5. Case 2 : (5*x - t) * 12/11 (5*5 -3 ) * 12/11 22 *12/11 = 24 min therefore the hands will be 3 min apart at 24 min past 5Related questions
