Answer : 100⁰

Solution

1 Division = 30⁰

So, 4 Division = 30 × 4 = 120⁰

But, the hour needle has already covered the distance of 40 min. From its side, so the angle covered in these 40 min.

= ½ × 40 =  20⁰

Now, the angle covered between both needles = 120⁰ – 20⁰ = 100⁰

2^nd Method : 

to find the angle = (11×min. – 60×time given)/2

= (11×40-60×4)/2 

= 200/2

= 100⁰
