    And your question was what?

    Could it have been "When was the clock on time?"

    If so, the clock gained 8:36 over 168 hours = 3.0714 sec/hr

    It will take 240/3.0714 hours to gain 4 minutes from noon on Friday = 78.1395 hr

    The clock will be exactly correct at 6:08:22.3 pm on Monday
