i hit my head on this question for a long time ! finally got the answer. total difference : 6seconds+24seconds - 30seconds they lose in a day. now calculate the total seconds in four hours . which is 14400. now divide 14400 by 30 seconds. which will be 480. now multiple that number by 24 hours. the final and correct sanswer will be 11520. :)
