The dashed frame shows a wall clock exactly as Imran sees it in his barber's mirror. What is the actual time?

  • A9:10
  • B10:10
  • C2:50
  • D9:50

Step-by-Step Solution

The image shows 2:50. The actual time is 11:60 - 2:50 = 9:10, because reflecting the image again gives back the clock. (10:10 forgets to borrow; 2:50 reads the image as if it were the clock; 9:50 keeps the minute hand.)
Answer: A) 9:10
