Question

How many times does the second hand of a clock meet 12 in 6 hours?

A.

60

B.

240

C.

120

D.

360

Correct option is D

The second hand of a clock comes to 12 once every minute.
In 1 hour = 60 minutes
So, in 6 hours = 6 × 60 = 360 minutes
Therefore, the second hand will meet 12, 360 times in 6 hours.
Trick:
1 minute → 1 time at 12
6 hours = 360 minutes → 360 times at 12
Thus, correct option is (d).
