If it is 7:00 pm currently in the clock, what will the clock show (in am or pm) after 674 hours?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

Current time is 7:00 PM. Need to find the time after 674 hours.

Every 24 hours, the clock returns to the same time. The remainder when dividing 674 by 24 determines the time change.


Divide 674 by 24:

674÷24=28674 \div 24 = 28 remainder 22

24×28=67224 \times 28 = 672

674−672=2674 - 672 = 2

So 674 hours = 28 complete days + 2 hours.


After 28 complete days (672 hours), the clock shows the same time: 7:00 PM.


Add the remaining 2 hours to the current time:

7:00 PM+2 hours=9:00 PM7:00 \text{ PM} + 2 \text{ hours} = 9:00 \text{ PM}

Therefore, the clock will show 9:00 PM.
