You can put this solution on YOUR website! two watches are set at 9: am one watch runs 2 min fast every hour.
the other watch runs 1 min slow every hour.
the faster watch will ahead one hour the slower watch at what time the next morning.
:
The two watches will be 3 min apart after the 1st hour and 3 min more each hour thereafter
That should be 60/3 or after 20 hrs
This should occur at 5 Am the next morning
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let = the number of minutes that go by = what the fast clock
shows after min = what the slow clock
shows after min
-------------------------------
When is the difference in the clocks 1 hr? min
Convert 1200 min to hrs hrs
9 AM plus 12 hrs is 9 PM
9 PM plus 8 hrs is 5 AM
5 AM the next morning
