Redbaron Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Corinthian, doubt I could be persuaded to leave my current employer but 7427466391... and I doubt I'd want to work for google either, but I'm not even going to pretend I worked that one out on my own. The clock one... Every hour they line up (24x), will get back to you on the 2nd part of the question.. time for sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCorinthian Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 The clock one... Every hour they line up... Nope. Think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Hi, They line up 60 times an hour (or actually slightly less I think), so times 24 makes 1,440 times. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

expat Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 00:0001:05 02:10 03:15, etc Close, but not exact. The incremental fudge factor is significant here. When you calculate the exact times, all becomes clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Radley Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 If you take a day as being from 00:00 to 24:00 (and not 23:59), I make it 23 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
