The hour hand will be somewhere between 12 and 1 on
\n" ); document.write( "the clock. It's speed is \"+5%2F1+\" minute spaces/hr
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The minute hand will go a little beyond the 40 minute
\n" ); document.write( "since the hour hand is moving at the same time.
\n" ); document.write( "It's speed is \"+60%2F1+\" minute spaces/hr
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "In words:
\n" ); document.write( "[ rate of minute hand ]x[ time elapsed ] minus [ rate of hour hand ]x[ time elapsed ]
\n" ); document.write( "equals [ 40 minute spaces ]
\n" ); document.write( "( note that time is in hours )
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+60%2F1+%29%2At+-+%28+5%2F1+%29%2At+=+40+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t%2A%28+60+-+5+%29+=+40+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+40%2F55+\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "Convert hrs to minutes
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+%28+8%2F11+%29%2A60+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+480%2F11+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+43.6363+\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.6363%2A60+=+38.1818+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The hands will be 40 minute spaces apart at
\n" ); document.write( "12:43:38
