12:03 is the answer Proof. Put 12;00(which is the midnight) in the middle, the place A,B,C and D at the appropriate spot around 12:00. So command all of them to move to 12:00 at the same place let's see who reach first . So think of options ABC& as neighboring village to 12.00(midnight). Which is closer. 12:03 right? 1 Like |

cos 11.50am to 12 am is Abt 12hrs 10minutes distance between 11.55am to 12am is also 12hrs 5minutes, distance from12.03am to 12am is about 23hrs plus while from 12.06am to 12am is almost 24hrs too,so the answer is 11.55am Obinoscopy: 1 Like |

Re: Solve This Easy And Yet Tricky Question by PoliteActivist: 9:30pm On Jun 23, 2023 |
slawomir: Depends on how you define the word "to". Eg - which child is closest TO the 2nd child in birth order: the 6th child or the first child? |

Fuckyoumod:Check the options properlly, there is no 11:55 pm there, all the zones are a.m. |
Re: Solve This Easy And Yet Tricky Question by Harmless1b(m): 9:32pm On Jun 23, 2023 |
D. 12:03 Because it's only 3 mins away from 12:00(i.e 3 mins to 12:00) while others is 5mins,10mins and 6 mins respectively to midnight. |

Obinoscopy:the question is the closest time “TO” midnight not the closest time “TO MIDNIGHT AFTER MIDNIGHT” the answer is “11:55”…. Anything after that is going “away” from midnight. 1 Like |

Those people choosing 12:03am, their clock must be moving anti clock wise. Any body whose clock moves clockwise definitely knows 11:55am to be the correct answer 1 Like |

Obinoscopy: Got it at first glance. Getting The answer isn't really in the options, but from the question itself. The question said closest time "to" midnight, not "from" midnight. The answer is, (A). 11:55am. 1 Like |

Tricky indeed. For you to get the answer, you might have to reverse hrs and mins backward. Making 11:50am to be your answer. But if it's forward, then midnight is just 12 hrs 5 min away from 11:55am. Still think it's 11:50 though. |
Re: Solve This Easy And Yet Tricky Question by Psoul(m): 10:50pm On Jun 23, 2023 |
slawomir: "To" in this context can mean before or after. Your second answer takes "to" to mean moving towards. But you're wrong. Let's take this analogy. If I'm sitting inbetween you and your sister. You are on my right hand a foot away from me and your sister on my left is a foot and 2 inches away from me, who is the closest to me? The correct answer is that 12:03 |

Re: Solve This Easy And Yet Tricky Question by DollarSigns(m): 11:00pm On Jun 23, 2023 |
slawomir:11:55 am is closer to noon 12:03 am is shortest from midnight |
Re: Solve This Easy And Yet Tricky Question by Cheche555(f): 11:04pm On Jun 23, 2023 |
The correct answer is 12:03 am That's what is close to midnight 11:55am is morning and not night If it was 11:55 pm then it's midnight but Am is morning and therefore 12:03 is the first you get once it's 12am which is the beginning of a new day |

bamvik: Nigerian time people. The interval between 12:03am and midnight is 23hours, 57minutes. The correct answer is 11:55am which interval to midnight is 12hours 5mins. |
Re: Solve This Easy And Yet Tricky Question by Flexy27: 11:11pm On Jun 23, 2023 |
If you know the difference between PM and AM then you know the answer is 12.03am. |
