What's the Time? (Posted on 2003-07-30) Difficulty: 2 of 5
At a certain time I looked at a 24 hour digital clock and noticed some things about the time:

1)The number in the hours section plus the number in the minutes section makes 60.

2)One of the digits in the minutes section is the square root of the other digit in the minutes section.

3)The sum of the digits in the minutes section is the number in the hours section reversed. What was the time?

"Most digital clocks and watches show times between 00:00 to 23:59. As a notable exception, the digital clocks of at least one European manufacturer of kitchen appliances show 24:00 for midnight, rather than the standard 00:00, with an example being Bosch Siemens microwaves." -- from Wikipedia, 24-hour clock.
