Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
As we know that the hands of a clock point towards each other in every 12 hour = 11 times.
[`because` the hands of a clock point towards each other once at 6 o.clock between 5 and 7].
Therefore, the hands of a clock point towards each other in a day i.e. in 24 hours
`" "=11 times 2` times = 22 times.
