Solution

In a minute, the hour hand moves by half degrees and the minute hand moves by six degrees.
The angle at 3 o'clock between the two hands is 90 degrees.
For them to coincide, it should move m minutes
90=0+(6mm2)

180=12mm

180=11m

m=16411

It should be 16411 past 3 for the two hands to coincide.
