Correct Answer

✅ Option c — West

All Options:

  • ASouth-East
  • BEast
  • CWest
  • DSouth-West

Detailed Solution & Explanation

At 6:00 PM, the hour hand points to the 6 mark (normally South).
Since the hour hand points to North, this represents a 180∘\displaystyle 180^\circ rotation of the clock directions.
At 9:15 PM, the minute hand points to the 3 mark (normally East).
Applying the 180∘\displaystyle 180^\circ rotation to East yields:
Minute Hand Direction=West\text{Minute Hand Direction} = \text{West}
Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
