Answer / guest

The minute and the hour hand meet 11 times in 12 hours in
normal watch i.e. they meet after every

= (12 * 60) / 11 minutes

= 65.45 minutes

But in our case they meet after every 65 minutes means the
watch is gaining 27.16 seconds.

Answer / rachit pant

In one hour , the minute hand will be 55 ticks ahead of hour
clock
(This is because the minute hand has travelled 60 ticks in
one hour , while the hour hand has travelled 5 ticks in that
time).

Both minute hand and hour hand will be together when minute
hand is 60 ticks ahead of hour hand.

In 60 minutes ->> 55 ticks ahead.
In ? minutes ->> 60 ticks ahead.

? = 60/55 * 60 = 65 5/11 = 65.454545 (ANS )

Answer / oran

On our broken watch, the Hour and Minute hands meet every 65 minutes, which in a 12 hour period is 715 minutes (65*11).

On standard analog clock, the second hand and the minute had will meet every 65.45454545 minutes based on the (12*60)/11 formula; which for a 12 hour period is 720 minutes (65.45454545 * 11 ~or using our previous formula~ 12*60).

720 - 715 = 5 minutes for 12 hour period
In a 12 hour period our broken watch gains 5 minutes and will not be the same again for a long time to come.
