4.A clock seen through a mirror, shows quarter past three. What is the correct time shown by the clock?
- A.
3.15
- B.
8.45
- C.
9.15
- D.
9.45
Correct Answer
B. 8.45Explanation
When we see a clock through a mirror, the hour and minute hands appear to be reversed. In this case, the mirror image shows the time as quarter past three. So, if we reverse the hands to their correct positions, the time would be quarter past nine. However, the only option that matches this is 8.45, which is the mirror image of 9.15. Therefore, the correct time shown by the clock is 8.45.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. 4.00Explanation
