Question 44

Ambatta's watch works in the following manner during a particular week consisting of Seven Days where each day consists of twenty-four hours :
Day 1 : Correctly throughout the whole day
Day 2 : Skips One Second during the whole day
Day 3 : Skips Three Seconds during the whole day
Day 4 : Skips Four Seconds during the whole day
Day 5 : Skips Seven Seconds during the whole day
Day 6 : Skips Thirteen Seconds during the whole day
Day 7 : Skips Seven Seconds during the whole day
How many Seconds did Ambatta's watch work during the given duration as per the information provided ?

Solution: So as per the given dataΒ Ambatta's watch skips 35 seconds in total in the week ( 0+1+3+4+7+13+7Β ) .

Now total number of seconds in 1 week is : 7 (days) * 24 (hours in 1 day) * 60(minutes in 1 hour) *60 (seconds in 1 minute)

which gives us 6,04,800 seconds in totalΒ 

Now in order to arrive at our answer we need to subtract the secondsΒ Ambatta's watch skipped.

ThereforeΒ How many Seconds did Ambatta's watch work during the given duration = 6,04,800 - 35 =Β 604 765 Seconds

Therefore option c is correct
