How many times does the minute hand meet the hour hand in a
day?

Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback



How many times does the minute hand meet the hour hand in a day?..

Answer / kerobotz

After starting at 12am they don't meet back up at 1:05am
they actually meet back up at 1:05 and 27.27 secs. This
extra time adds up over the course of the morning and after
11 hours becomes 5 mins.

Therefore it is 22 times in a day.

The math:
min_hand completely rotates 1/hr
hr_hand completely rotates (1/12)/hr
They unite at time t when t(1-1/12)=1
==> t=1/(1-1/12)
=1/(11/12)
=12/11
==> t is 1.0909 hours

How many times does the minute hand meet the hour hand in a day?..

Answer / om

for Foxy Z. and Ankit Kumar...
and all others that say - 24.

How on earth is that Possible... Just use sense.

first, It can be 24 only if there is difference of 1 hour
But u guys urself are telling that its 1.05... then how is
that possible.

and for Foxy Z. that says to look at clock-
Tell me Foxy, according to ur table...

at 12.00 am (start of the day) the hands meet
at 11.55 pm (just before end of the day) the hands meet

then according to you, just after 5 minutes from 11.55 pm,
again the hands will meet, coz its 12.00 am start of next day.

How is that possible?

Kerobotz and others who say 22 are right, check their post
for logic.

23 can be the answer if u are including the next day's 12.00 am
