A sample question from this test
Through how many degrees does the hour hand of a clock turn in 3 hours and 20 minutes?
- 103
- 110
- 99
- 100
Answer: D. 100. The hour hand turns 0.5° per minute. Total time = 200 minutes, so it turns 200 × 0.5 = 100°.
How to approach this test
The minute hand moves 6° a minute and the hour hand 0.5° a minute, so the angle at h:m is |30h − 5.5m|. Take the smaller angle if it exceeds 180°.
This set leans easy, so use it to confirm that you can solve the basic pattern accurately before you move to harder sets. At 20 questions in 20 minutes, you have about 60 seconds per question on average. After you submit, review every wrong or guessed answer using the explanations.
