What is the smaller angle between the hands of a clock at 3:30?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. 75 degrees
- Step 1: The minute hand points at 6, which is 180 degrees from 12. The hour hand moves 30 degrees per hour, so it is at 3.5 x 30 = 105 degrees. Step 2. The difference is 180 - 105 = 75 degrees. Answer: 75 degrees. Why not the others: 90 ignores the hour hand's move, 60 and 105 are not the gap.
