None of these
min. past 4
min. past 4
40 min. past 4
When the hands of the clock is in opposite directions then they make Angle of 180 degree.
Angle = 11/2 (m) - 30(h)
180 = 11/2 (m) - 120
300 = 11/2 (m)
600/11 = m
m =54 6/11
Therefore the hands were in opposite directions when the hands of clocks at 4h 54 6/11 min
