Question

When it is 2 hours after 2 o'clock, then it is 4 o'clock (2 + 2 = 4). When it is 10 hours after 10 o'clock, then it is 8 o'clock. In this kind of "clock arithmetic," 10 + 10 = 8.

When a clock time gets bigger than 12, you subtract 12 and take the answer as the actual clock time. For example, if you subtract 12 from 20, the answer is 8, so 20 o'clock is really 8 o'clock.

Brad has a certain medication that he needs to take every 5 hours without fail, starting at 1 o'clock on a certain day. The sequence of clock times that he takes his pills is 1, 6, 11, 4, 9, ...

What is the clock time when Brad takes his 16th pill?

Answer 1

The answer would be at 4 and here is the explanation on to why is it that:
u16=u1+(16-1)5=1+75=76
time = 76-12x6=4
That is why is at 4
Hope this helps
