- A & B bought watches at 12 p.m. After 1 hour,
In 1 hour A's watch shows = 2 min more
In 1 hour B's watch shows = 4 min less
for A's watch
60 min. = 120 sec. more
30 min. = 60 sec. more
1 min = 2 sec more
SO when A's watch reads 10:p.m., at that time the correct time would be 9 hours 40 min & 35 seconds
so we need to find the reading of B's watch at above correct time,which i mentioned
For B's watch
60 min = 240 sec. less
1 min = 4 sec. less
so at 9 hour 40 min 35 seconds the B's reading will be 9 hour 1 min & 20 seconds approximately. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
