2 hrs and 12 min can be written as:

2 (1/12) + (1/12)(12/60) of a 12-hour analog clock.

= 11/60

Converted to 360 degrees is simply 66/360.

In 2 hours don't we have already 720 degrees cause the hand to make the circle twice, then we add the 360/60 * 12 which is 72 degree to have the degree it moves for the 12 min beyond the two hours. So I guess the answer will be 720+72= 790 degrees ( Answer E ).

Can anyone correct me if wrong ?
