Explanation:
Here we know that at 3:17 pm you started to bake the cake. The total revolution the minute hand on the clock makes is:
[tex]\frac{5}{8}+\frac{13}{24}=\frac{7}{6} \ revolutions[/tex]
We know that:
[tex]1 \ revolution ----------- 60min \\ \\ 7/6 \ revolutions -----------x[/tex]
Solving for x:
[tex]x=\frac{7}{6}\times 60=70 minutes[/tex]
So it takes 70 minutes after you put the cake in the oven. But:
[tex]70minutes=1h \ 10min[/tex]
Adding this to the initial time:
[tex]3:17pm+1h \ 10min=4:27pm[/tex]
Finally, the cake is done at 4:27 pm, option C.
