      Question

      What will be the measurement of the angle made by the

      hour and minute hands of a clock when the time is โ€˜quarter past 3โ€™?
      A 6(1/2) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 7(1/2) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 8(1/2) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      At 3:15, the minute hand is on the 3, while the hour hand is slightly ahead of 3. Using the formula Angle = |30H โˆ’5.5M|, we get |30(3)โˆ’5.5(15)| = |90โˆ’82.5| = 7.5, rounded to 8(1/2) .
