Question
How many times in a day will the hour hand minute hand exactly coincide with each other ??
Answer
Although it seems like it should be 24 times in a 24 hour clock, they coincide only 22 times during a 24 hour period !!!
It's because the minute hand moves faster than the hour hand.
In a 12 hour period, the minute hand completes 12 rounds, while the hour hand completes only one !!!
This means they overlap only 11 times during those 12 hours.
So, for 24 hours, that makes 22 times !!!

We Indians have the habit of using the same cooking oil that we used to fry poories in the morning,
Same cooking oil we use to fry papads as the evening snack !!!!
STOP !!!
Using the same cooking oil repeatedly can be harmful.
Oil becomes oxidized, leading to free radical formation. This can cause cell damage and inflammation.
Oil could become ruffled with impurities affecting food taste and quality.
Some oils have low smoke points . They break down when they are reheated.
This can lead to serious health issues.
It is best to use fresh oil for each cooking session.
Yesterday night was the FIFA worldcup final match between Spain and Argentina.
By now, everyone has come to know that Spain has become the champions !!!!
Yesterday at 7 pm, my nephew Aniruddha had called me.
Me : Aniruddha, tonight is the final football match between Spain and Argentina !!!
Aniruddha : Yes ......
Me : Who do you think will win the match ??
Aniruddha : It is going to be Spain !!!!
Me : Why Spain ?? Argentina are also the hot favourites.....
Aniruddha : Argentina were the last time champion. So this time, its Spain !!!!!
Me : What's this logic ??!!
If a team plays well, that team would be champions for second time also.
Messi would cast his magic this time.
Argentina would be champions this time !!!
Aniruddha : Stats say, only two teams have won back to back worldcup.
That too, long back.....
Italy in 1934 and 1938 and Brazil in 1958 and 1962.
Then no one has won back to back worldcups.
Me : Stats are there to break !!!
This time, Argentina would break the jinx
Aniruddha : By tomorrow morning, we would come to know the result
I strongly believe Spain are going to be champions !!!
Me : Let's wait and watch .....
Aniruddha and stats were right !!!
Argentina lost and Spain have become new champions !!!
