Answer:
The correct answer option is A. 72°
Step-by-step explanation:

the number of minutes the minute hand has moved = 12; and
the total number of minutes in a complete circle (of clock) = 60
So it means the minute hand has moved
of the clock.
Since there are 360 degrees in a clock (circle), so the minute hand would make an angle of
of 360 degrees of the clock.
°
Therefore, the minute hand makes an angle of 72° degree in 12 minutes of time.
