Question
What time is it?

Answer

It takes the hour-hand 12 minutes to move a small division of the dial. Therefore 12 minutes later, the hour-hand will be at an hour mark and the minute-hand will be at the bottom hour mark. When the hour-hand is at an hour mark, the minute-hand must be at the 12 hour-mark. Therefore, the time is 11:00 – 0:12 = 10:48.
