Answer: (B) 3
From 12 to 9 is 9 hours. Each hour space is \(30^\circ\), so 9 hours is \(9 \times 30^\circ = 270^\circ\). Since one right angle is \(90^\circ\), \(270^\circ / 90^\circ = 3\) right angles.
In simple words: Moving from 12 to 9 covers three-quarters of a clock face, which equals 3 right angles.
