At what time (approximately) (in PM) between 5 PM and 6 PM will the angle between the hour and the minute hand of a clock be 130 degrees?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The angle between the hands of a clock
H = Hours (Here, H = 5, since the time is between 5 and 6)
M = Minutes (which we need to determine)
θ = Angle (Here, θ = 130 degrees)
When the minute hand lags behind the hour hand
Approximate time: 5:04 (since 3.63 minutes is close to 4 minutes)
The correct option is: (B) 5:04
