Q
Q: If a clock loses 2 minutes every hour, how much time will it show after 5 hours if it started at 12:00?
Solution:
In 5 hours, the clock will lose 10 minutes (2 minutes/hour * 5 hours). So, it will show 12:00 - 10 minutes = 11:50.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that the clock loses 2 minutes for every hour.
Step 2: Calculate how many hours we are looking at, which is 5 hours.
Step 3: Multiply the number of hours (5) by the number of minutes lost per hour (2). This gives us 5 * 2 = 10 minutes lost.
Step 4: Start with the initial time, which is 12:00.
Step 5: Subtract the total minutes lost (10 minutes) from the initial time (12:00).
Step 6: 12:00 minus 10 minutes equals 11:50.
