The Usage of Cyclic Group in the Clock

Miakhel Samimullah

Abstract: The paper presents the result of research on application of cyclic group in the clock presented. In the research work we used foreign reliable sources and materials. Cyclic groups are common in our everyday life. A cyclic group is a group with an element that has an operation applied that produces the whole set. A cyclic group could be a pattern found in nature, for example in a snowflake, or in a geometric pattern we draw ourselves. Cyclic groups can also be thought of as rotations, if we rotate an object enough times we will eventually return to the original position. Cyclic groups are used in topics such as cryptology and number theory. In this paper we explore further applications of cyclic groups in the 12hours clock.

Keywords: Cyclic group, 12- hours clock, clock arithmetic, subgroup, whole numbers, addition table
