7:10
A clock shows 7:10, but when you flip it upside-down it still says 7:10. How come?
Answer
It is an analog clock. Even though you flip it upside-down the long hand is on 2 and the short hand is on 7. Thus, saying 7:10.Hide Answer Show Answer

Lol, that's clever. As soon as I saw that it was in the trick section, though, I figured that the answer was "It still says 7:10, it's just upside-down" or something like that. Whoops.
But I enjoyed this teaser, good job.

Really easy.
This is really fun. I love trick questions.
Really easy once you get the trick. It was interesting though

If the clock had no numbers, it would still say 2:40.
haha
Easy one
I said that 7:10 was written on it in ink both rightside up and upside down.
Technically, it could be a digital clock, it still would say 7:10 even if it was upside-down, it just would be upside-down
no matter what you do to the clock (except break it :lol it will always say 7:10 (i should use : more often )
Turning a clock upside down doesn't change the time of day or what the clock says, just how it looks. Good one
I totally agree with you zembobo, I was going to post the same words before I saw your comment.
