At 5:10 Kavya glances at the kitchen clock reflected in the window glass, which acts like an upright mirror. What time does the reflection seem to show?

Question

Accepted Answer

6:50. 11:60-5:10=6:50. The minute hand on 2 is seen on 10, and the hour hand just past 5 is seen just before 7. 7:50 forgets to borrow, 6:10 keeps the minutes, and 1:20 is the water image.
