[hide]Problem
A donkey suffers an attack of hiccups and the first hiccup happens at one afternoon. Suppose that the donkey hiccups regularly every seconds. At what time does the donkey’s th hiccup occur?
Solution 1
Since the donkey hiccupped the 1st hiccup at , he hiccupped for seconds, which is minutes and seconds, so the answer is .
~MrThinker
Solution 2 (Faster)
We see that the minute has already been determined. The donkey hiccups once every 5 seconds, or 12 times a minute. , so the 700th hiccup happened on the same second as the 4th, which occurred on the th second. .

Solution 3 (Another fast way)
We can add and then minus seconds. Finally, we minus seconds giving .
