Asked by Kishan Anand
A clock is set right at 10 AM. The clock gains 10 minutes in 24 hours. What will be the true time when the clock indicates 3 PM the following day?

so for each hour on the clock, it is really 2.4 minutes ahead of real time.
So at 3PM clock time, it is showing 29hours*2.4min/hr= 69.6 min ahead, true time then is 2PM-9.6min=1:50:24
check my thinking
