    45 minutes is 3/4 of an hour. In an hour, the minute hand turns 360 degrees.

    So in 45 minutes, the minute hand turns 3/4 * 360 = 270 degrees.

    Answer - 270 degrees

    Here is why:

    A full clock turn is 360, there for 3/4 of the clock is 270 degrees.

    270, you take three fourths of 360.. 360* 3/4=270
