Assume that X minutes after 4.00 PM minute hand exactly
aligns with and hour hand.
For every minute, minute hand travels 6 degrees.
Hence, for X minutes it will travel 6 * X degrees.
For every minute, hour hand travels 1/2 degrees.
Hence, for X minutes it will travel X/2 degrees.
At 4.00 PM, the angle between minute hand and hour hand is
120 degrees. Also, after X minutes, minute hand and hour
hand are exactly aligned. So the angle with respect to 12
i.e. Vertical Plane will be same. Therefore,
6 * X = 120 + X/2
12 * X = 240 + X
11 * X = 240
X = 21.8182
X = 21 minutes 49.5 seconds
Hence, at 4:21:49.5 minute hand is exactly aligned with the
hour hand.

Answer / akash pandey
We know that minute hand cover 55 minute unit over hour hand in 1 hour.
And at 4 p.m minute hand is 20 minute unit back to hour hand hence it have to covers 20 minute unit then-
55 minute unit covers in = 60 min
then 20 minute unit covers in = (60/55)*20
= 21.8 min
= 21 min 48 sec
=> Therefore at 4 hr:21 min:48 sec pm both hands are overlapped.

Ali Baba had four sons, to whom he bequeathed his 39 camels, with the proviso that the legacy be divided in the following way : The oldest son was to receive one half the property, the next a quarter, the third an eighth and the youngest one tenth. The four brothers were at a loss as how to divide the inheritance among themselves without cutting up a camel, until a stranger appeared upon the scene. Dismounting from his camel, he asked if he might help, for he knew just what to do. The brothers gratefully accepted his offer. Adding his own camel to Ali Baba's 39, he divided the 40 as per the will. The oldest son received 20, the next 10, the third 5 and the youngest 4. One camel remained : this was his, which he mounted and rode away. Scratching their heads in amazement, they started calculating. The oldest thought : is not 20 greater than the half of 39? Someone must have received less than his proper share ! But each brother discovered that he had received more than his due. How is it possible?
