Q13. Answer: B) 10°

Explanation:

At [Link]

Minute hand position:

 At 20 min = 20 × 6° = 120° (from 12)

Hour hand position:

  At 4:00 = 4 × 30° = 120°
 Additional for 20 min = 20 × 0.5° = 10°
 Total = 120° + 10° = 130°

Angle between hands: |130° - 120°| = 10°

Formula verification:

Angle = |30H - 6M|

H = 4 + 20/60 = 4.333...
M = 20

= |30(4.333) - 6(20)|
= |130 - 120|
= 10°

Inlet 1 12h 1/12
Inlet 2 18h 1/18
Outlet 9h -1/9

Net rate:
1/12 + 1/18 - 1/9

LCM of 12, 18, 9 = 36

= 3/36 + 2/36 - 4/36

= (3+2-4)/36
= 1/36

Time = 36 hours

Wait, that's not matching options. Let me recalculate:

1/12 + 1/18 - 1/9 = 3/36 + 2/36 - 4/36 = 1/36

Time = 36 hours
