172. John has a clock that runs 12 minutes fast every hour. He and his friend Linda waited until it was noon and then set the clock to 12:00 so it would be correct. They left for the afternoon and came back, and the clock read 6:00. Linda said, “That’s not the real time.” John said, “I know. The real time is 5:00. What time will it be when the clock reads 10:48?”
172. It will be 9:00. This is easier to see if you make a chart.
