Solution

The minute hand on a clock moves 360° in 60 minutes. This means it moves 6° per minute (360°/60 minutes = 6° per minute). If the minute hand has to move 30°, then it will take 5 minutes (30°/6° per minute = 5 minutes). If the quiz started at 9:10 a.m., then it will end at 9:15 a.m. Therefore, the answer is A) 9:15 a.m.
