Answer 7

None of these answers are right thus far..

Eg. 12 4 8.. Say second hand at 12, minute hand at 4 and hour hand at 8.. this doesnt happen..

As the minute hand gets closer to 4 on the clock.. the hour hand moves between the 8 and the 9.. and therefore this is not a legitimate set of 120 degree angles

Answer 8

then? Can you help?

Answer 9

min at 12
hr at 8
sec at 4 would be the closest posible solution
