Correct choice: B

Explanation:

Angle between hands of a clock When the minute hand is behind the hour hand, the angle between the two hands at M minutes past H 'o clock => 30(H−M/5)+M/2 degrees Here H = 4, M = 15 and the minute hand is behind the hour hand. Hence the angle = 30[4-(15/5)]+15/2 = 30(1)+7.5 = 37.5 degrees
