What time between 2 and 3 o' clock do the minute hand and the hour hand overlap each other?
If the hands start off together at midnight, say, then the minute hand must catch up with the hour hand 11 times before they both end up on top of each other again at noon. Hence between one and two o'clock the time when the hands are in the same place is 60/11 = 5.4545... minutes past the hour, between two and three o'clock 2*60/11 = 10.9090... minutes past the hour and so on. So the time you want is 10.91 minutes past 2 o'clock which, to the nearest second, is 2:10:54.
If There are 3 people at a party If each person must shake hands with every other person at the party exactly once how many handshakes will there be?

There are five people in a room Each person shakes the hand of every other person exactly once How many handshakes are exchanged?
Everyone shakes hands with 4 other people. Since there are 5 people in the room this would suggest there are 5*4 = 20 handshakes. However, you would then be double counting handshakes: A shaking hands with B and B shaking hands with A is, in reality, only one handshake. Thus there are 5*4/2 = 10 handshakes in all.
