An old clock started to lose one minute each day. It was too fragile to fix, but too beloved to stop. How slow was the clock after one year? After two?

Days in a year = 365

clock loses one minute each year, so - 365minutes.

An hour is 60 minutes so 365/60 is 6 hours and 5 minutes.

In one year the clock would be 6 hours and 5 minutes too slow.

To find how slow it would be in two years, multiply 365 by 2. (Or multiply 6 hours and 5 minutes by 2)

365 x 2 = 730 minutes

(6:05 x 2 = 12:10.)

in two years, the clock will be 12 hours and 10 minutes too slow.
