an analogue clock is gaining three minutes every hour. If you set it to the correct time at 6pm on Saturday, when will it show the correct time again?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: It must gather 12 hours or 12*60=720 minutes. Every hour it gathers 3 minutes, so it needs 240 hours or exactly 10 days. 10 days from Saturday is Tuesday, at 6 PM.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

After 20 hours the clock will show 3*20 = 60 min = 1 hr more

Since the clock is analogue after 12 hours it will show the same time hat is 6 am and 6 pm are shown the same way.

After 20*12 = 240 hr = 10 days the clock will show 12 hr more but since 6 am and 6 pm are shown the same after 240 hr = 10 days the clock will show the correct time again.

The correct time will be shown on Monday 6 pm.

5% as a decimal and fraction in simplest form

Answers

Solutions 

5% as a decimal and fraction 

1) To make 5% to decimal you have to divide 5% by 100. Percent means something out of 100. 

⇒ 5% ÷ 100 = n
n = 0.05 

5% as a decimal = 0.05 

≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡

5% as a fraction 

1) Percent is always out of 100 so 5% would be out of 100
⇒ 5% = 5/100 

The fraction of 5% is 5/100 
5/100 can be reduced 
To reduce a fraction you have to divide by the greatest common factor

The greatest common factor of 5 and 100 is 5. 

5 ÷ 5 = 1
100 ÷ 5 = 20 

5/100 in simplest form would be 1/20

Simplify 

1) 5% as a decimal would be 
⇒ 0.05 

2) 5% as a fraction would be 
⇒ 1/20 




the answer is .5% and in farction is.5 over 100
