Answer / srivatsan
9 am on Monday morning. On Saturday 3 pm it was 5 mins
ahead, and on tuesday 9pm it was 10 mins slow. This means it
has taken 54 hours for the clock to get slow by 15 mins. So
18 hours for 5 mins , which means on Monday morning 9 am It
will be showing exact 9 am.

Answer / rohit garg
9 am on monday...
as it was 5 min fast on sunday n 10min slow on tuesday...
so total time gap=15 mins..
now time from sunday 3 pm to tuesday 9 pm=54 hrs..
15mins in 54 hrs..
1 min in 54/15 hrs..
5 min in (54/15)*5=18 hrs..
3pm on sunday+18hrs=9 am on monday

Answer / vinay
9am on Friday. As sunday was at 3:00 pm it was slow by 5
and subsequent tuesday a 10 min late clock.
so it took 2 days(48 hours) + 6 hours for the clock to slow
down by 5 min. hence just the do the maths in the reverse
manner.
