Nice try, oldbroad but no. I'm looking for the number of times the minute hand passes over the hour hand think

Two of my role models, flotsam whistle

Don't give up, oldbroad. They both start together at 12:00, the minute hand goes racing ahead, and roughly how long is it before they're on top of one another again?

I was thinking they are on top of each other every minute because the hour hand also moves along. (I mis-calculated that theory on my first attempt.) My brain can't think past that. blush

Alright one more try.

5. 120 ?

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
