On 6th day at 11:00 AM the clock will show
11:00 AM + 24×5 minutes = 1:00 PM
So on 6th day when the clock says 1:00 PM it is actually 11:00AM.

I noticed that in my big wall clock, there is a time when the minute and hour clock are exactly between one and two. Also I notice both hands lie on top of each other.

What is the time I am talking about ?
