    Find the approximate angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a 12-hour clock when the time is 9:25.
    Question

    Find the approximate angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a 12-hour clock when the time is 9:25.

    A.

    150°\degree​​

    B.

    190°\degree​​

    C.

    100°\degree​​

    D.

    130°\degree​​

    Correct option is D

    Given: The time is 9:25.
    Logic: Angle between the minute hand and the hour hand = (30 ×\times H) - (112\frac{11}{2} ×\times M)​
    where H represents hour and M represents minutes.
    Explanation:
    The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand = (30 ×\times 9) - (112 ×\frac{11}{2} \ \times 25)
    = 270 - 137.5 = 132.5°\degree
    Thus, the approximate angle between the minute and the hour hand when the time is 9:25 is 132.5°\degree.
    So, the correct answer is (d).
