  • A12:50
  • B11:10
  • C1:50
  • D11:50

Step-by-Step Solution

The image shows 12:10. Since 11:60 - 12:10 would be negative, use 23:60 - 12:10 = 11:50. Check with the hands: the minute hand on 2 in the image is really on 10 (50 minutes), and the hour hand just after 12 is really just before 12. (12:50 keeps the hour; 11:10 keeps the image's minutes.)
Answer: D) 11:50
