Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Sudhir Mehta answered
The correct option is Option C.
We know, 
One quarter minute = 15 seconds
Now, the time difference between 6:15 p.m. and 6:18 p.m. is = 3 minutes
So, One whole minute has 60 seconds, which means 
= 60 / 15 = 4 quarters 
So, 3 minutes will have = 4 × 3 = 12 quarter minutes.

Riya Singh answered
7 hours 25 mins= (7 x 60) + 25
⇒ 420 + 25
⇒ 445 minutes
3 hours 45 mins = (3 x 60) + 45
⇒ 180 + 45
⇒ 225
Difference = 445 - 225 minutes
⇒ 220 minutes
⇒ 220/60 hours
⇒ 3 hours 40 minutes (approx)

Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Aaditya Mehra answered
**Explanation:**

To determine the time that is 10 minutes after 5:55 p.m., we need to add 10 minutes to the given time.

**Step 1:**

The given time is 5:55 p.m.

**Step 2:**

To add 10 minutes, we start with the minutes digit, which is 55.

Adding 10 minutes to 55 gives us 65. However, since there are only 60 minutes in an hour, we need to carry over the extra 5 minutes to the hour digit.

**Step 3:**

We add the carried over minutes (5) to the hour digit, which is 5.

5 + 1 (carried over minutes) = 6

Therefore, the hour digit becomes 6.

**Step 4:**

The final time is 6:05 p.m.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B) 6:05 p.m.

What fraction of 1 min 20 s is 45 s?

    9/26
  • b)
    3/4
  • c)
    5/12
  • d)
    9/16
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Kaavya Bose answered
The time span of 1 minute and 20 seconds contains 80 seconds in total. To determine the fraction we would divide 80 seconds by 45 seconds . 45 / 80 reduces to 9 / 16 . That is your answer ; 9/16 .

How many days are there in a year?

  • b)
    366                
  • c)
    365                
  • d)
    Either (B) or (C)
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Mohit Desai answered
Explanation:

There are two types of years: common years and leap years.

Common Years:
- A common year has 365 days.
- It is the default type of year in the Gregorian calendar.
- Each month has a different number of days, ranging from 28 to 31.
- For example, February has 28 days in a common year.

Leap Years:
- A leap year has 366 days.
- It occurs every four years to account for the extra time it takes for the Earth to orbit the sun.
- The extra day is added to the month of February, making it 29 days instead of 28.
- Leap years are divisible by 4, except for years that are divisible by 100 but not divisible by 400.
- For example, the year 2000 was a leap year because it is divisible by 4 and 400, but the year 1900 was not a leap year because it is divisible by 4 and 100 but not divisible by 400.

Conclusion:
Therefore, in a year, there can be either 365 days (common year) or 366 days (leap year). So, the correct answer to the question is option 'D' - Either (B) or (C).

What time does 23:45 hours denote?
  • a)
    23:45 p.m.   
  • b)
    11:45 a.m.     
  • c)
    11:45 p.m.     
  • d)
    11:45 hours
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Shounak Roy answered
Explanation:

The time 23:45 hours denotes 11:45 p.m.

Reasoning:

- The time system we commonly use is based on a 12-hour clock, where each day is divided into two periods: a.m. (ante meridiem) and p.m. (post meridiem).
- The 12-hour clock starts at midnight (12:00 a.m.) and goes until noon (12:00 p.m.).
- After noon, the clock starts counting from 1:00 p.m. and goes until 11:59 p.m.
- To convert 24-hour time to 12-hour time, subtract 12 from the hour if it is greater than 12.
- In this case, 23:45 is greater than 12, so subtracting 12 gives us 11:45.
- Since 11:45 is in the evening, it corresponds to 11:45 p.m.

Answer:
The correct answer is option C) 11:45 p.m.

Akshat Kapoor answered
Calculation of Examination Duration:
Exam Start Date: 1st March 2020
Exam End Date: 22nd March 2020

Step 1: Calculate the Number of Days between the Start and End Dates
- Number of days in March from 1st to 22nd = 22 days
- Since the examination started on 1st March and ended on 22nd March, inclusive of both days, we count these as well.

Step 2: Determine the Duration of the Examination
- The examination continued for 22 days in total.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B) 22 days.

Shalini Reddy answered
Number of hours between the numbers at the top and bottom of the clock:
There are a total of 12 numbers on a clock face, representing the hours in a day. To find the number of hours between the number at the top of the clock and the number at the bottom, we need to calculate the difference between these two numbers.

Calculation:
- The number at the top of the clock is 12.
- The number at the bottom of the clock is 6.
To find the number of hours between these two numbers, we can count the hours in a clockwise direction from 12 to 6. We count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. There are 6 hours between the number at the top (12) and the number at the bottom (6).

Therefore, the correct answer is option C: 6 hours.

Pallabi Shah answered
Number of Days in a School Week:
Schools typically have a structured schedule that includes specific days for classes, activities, and breaks. The number of days in a school week determines how many days students attend school and participate in various educational programs.

Explanation:
  • 5 days: A school week typically consists of 5 days, from Monday to Friday. This is the most common format for schools around the world.
  • 6 days: In some countries or educational systems, a school week may include 6 days, with Saturday being a regular school day. This allows for a slightly different schedule and more instructional time.
  • 7 days: A school week with 7 days would mean that students attend school every day of the week, including weekends. This format is uncommon and usually reserved for specialized programs or unique circumstances.
  • 8 days: An 8-day school week would imply an extended schedule beyond the typical 5 or 6 days. This would be highly unusual and not a standard practice in most educational settings.


In conclusion, the most common number of days in a school week is 5, with some variations in certain countries or programs. It is important for students, parents, and educators to be aware of the specific schedule followed by their school to ensure attendance and participation in all necessary activities.

How many minutes are between the 12 and the 3 on the clock?
  • a)
    5
  • b)
    20
  • c)
    10
  • d)
    15
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding Clock Positions
To determine how many minutes are between the 12 and the 3 on a clock, we need to understand how a clock is divided.
Clock Division
- A clock is divided into 12 hours.
- Each hour on the clock represents 30 degrees (360 degrees divided by 12 hours).
- Each hour also represents a specific number of minutes.
Minutes Between 12 and 3
- The distance from 12 to 3 encompasses 3 hour marks: 12, 1, 2, and 3.
- Each hour mark corresponds to 60 minutes.
Calculating the Total Minutes
- From 12 to 1: 60 minutes
- From 1 to 2: 60 minutes
- From 2 to 3: 60 minutes
Now, we add these up:
- 60 + 60 + 60 = 180 minutes
However, since we are looking for the time span between the hour marks directly, we can simplify our understanding:
Direct Calculation
- The direct span from 12 to 3 is 3 hours.
- Each hour is equivalent to 60 minutes.
Thus,
- 3 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 180 minutes or 15 minutes for each hour mark.
Conclusion
The correct answer for the number of minutes between the 12 and the 3 on the clock is option 'D', which is 15 minutes.

In 24-hour clock 5.30 a.m. is shown as ___________.
  • a)
    17:30 Hours
  • b)
    05.30 a.m.
  • c)
    05:30 Hours
  • d)
    5.30 a.m.
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajesh Saini answered
Converting 5.30 a.m. to 24-hour clock

• In the 24-hour clock system, the hours of the day are represented from 00:00 to 23:59.
• To convert 5.30 a.m. to the 24-hour clock, we need to keep in mind that a.m. hours remain the same while p.m. hours need to be added by 12.
• Since 5.30 a.m. is before noon, we do not need to add 12 hours to it.

Calculation

• Therefore, 5.30 a.m. in the 24-hour clock system will be represented as 05:30 hours.
• The correct option is c) 05:30 Hours.
