I THINK ON 4TH DAY OF 2ND WEEK EXECTLY AT 12 OF NOON

COZ RATE OF TIME GAIN IN 1ST WEEK = 5/7 MIN PER DAY

ROT LOSE IN 2ND WEEK = 10/7 MIN PER DAY

COZ AT START OF 4TH DAY OF 2ND WEEK CLOCK WILL GAIN BY 5/7 MINS BUT AT END OF 4TH DAY IT WUD LOSE BY 5/7 MIN

1st week : gain five minutes 0+5min=5min

2nd week : loose ten minute 5min-10min=-5min

3rd week :  gain 5min -5+5=0min =exact time

so clock will  be on time on 3rd week

IN FIRST WEEK GAINED 5 MIN.IN NEXT WEEK IT STARTS LOOSING.IF IT IS TO SHOW WRIGHT TIME THEN IT HAS TO LOOSE 5 MIN THAT IS GAINED IN FIRST WEEK.IT TAKES (7*24)HRS TO LOOSE 10 MIN. SO TO LOOSE 5 MIN TIME TAKEN IS(7*24)(5/10)=84 HRSIi.e IT TAKES 3 DAYS 12 HOURS TO SHOW CORRECT TIME

in first week clock will gain 5minutes

in second week clock will lose 10 minutes so total is 10-5=5minutes lose

in third week clock will gain 5 minutes so -5+5=0

at starting of 4th week clock will show right time

let us consider that 1st week clock gains 5mins x=5

2nd week clock losses 10mins y=10

3rd week clock gains 5mins z=5min

so x+z=y i.e 5+5=10

so at the starting of the 4th week 1stday 00.00am clock shows correct time
