Question

This picture shows the image of a clock in a plane mirror. What is the actual time in the clock?

• A. 11:08
• B. 11:52
• C. 12:52
• D. 01:52

Answer 1

The correct option is A 11:08

Time shown in the mirror image is 12:52. However, the image is laterally inverted.

The hour hand of the mirror image is between 12 and 1. This means that the hour hand in the actual clock is between 11 and 12.
The minute hand of the mirror image is at 12 (52 minutes). This means that the minute hand in the actual clock is at 11(8minutes).

Hence, the actual time will be 11:08.
