At a certain point of time someone observes a clock and find out that the hour hand is exactly at the minute mark and the minute hand is six minutes ahead of it. The clock is observed again to find out that the hour hand is exactly on a different minute mark but the minute hand is seven minutes ahead of it this time. Can you calculate the time that has elapsed between two observations ? BRAIN TEASER
