notation: natural numbers = 0,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ....., (some define it without the zero, though) <= means smaller than or equal to, {} is set notation and means a set of numbers : (such that) then some condition. For example {x: x is not a duck} is the set of all things not a duck.
Our goal is to prove that there are 21 different times. let x1 = hours, x2 = tens of minutes, x3 = minutes. We are going to prove the statement about the set {x1, x2,x3: 1<=x1 <= 12, 0<= x2<=5, 0<=x3 <= 59, x1 + x2 + x3 = 6}. It will be taken by assumption that this set is the set of digital clock combinations that add up to 6. So then, we must prove that there are unique 21 elements in the set {x1 + x2 + x3 : 1<= x1 <= 12, 0<= x2<=5, 0<=x3 <= 59, x1 + x2 + x3 = 6}. {x1 , x2 , x3 : 1<= x1 <= 12, 0<= x2<=5, 0<=x3 <= 59, x1 + x2 + x3 = 6} = {x1 , x2 , x3 : 1<= x1 <= 6, 0<= x2<=5, 0<=x3 <= 5, x1 + x2 + x3 = 6} because x3<=6, and because if x1 >=1, then x2 + x3 <=5, and x3, x2 >= 0 , so surely x3, x2 <= x5. Either x1 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Next, x1 + x2 + x3 = 6, so x2 + x3 = 6 - x1. There are n+1 natural numbers between 0 and n (I'm being lazy and not proving this, but the proof would be so much longer if I proved it), and since 0 <= x2 <= 5 <= 6-x1, there are at most 6-x1+1 values of x2 for each value of x1. When x1 = 1, there are a maximum of 6, when x1 = 2, there are 6-2+1 = 5, when x1 = 3, there are 6-3+1 = 4, when x1 = 3, there are 3, then 2, and then 1. Summing this up gives us a maximum of 21. So it is at most 21 and at least 21, so exactly 21.

A digital clock will have the greatest sum if added up at nine fifty nine. That would be three digits, not four.
36 times. Hint: Seven, eight and nine can all be discarded.
how can you write 7 minutes after 3 on a digital clock
Ten minutes to nine on digital clock would be the same as saying it is Eight Fifty.

Four.
The answer is 65. Start with 1:23, 1:24, 1:25, etc. Do this for each hour. Don't for get the 12th hour....12:34......etc
A digital clock will have the greatest sum if added up at nine fifty nine. That would be three digits, not four.
If you have the Maximum clock frequency, then you can figure out the minimum clock period using this formula: 1/(minimum clock period) = (Maximum clock frequency).
There are 93 such events.

1:35
There are exactly 114 palindromes on a digital clock in a 24 hour period. I was asked to do this problem for homework and so theres your answer.

A digital format is a format system that uses the digits 1 and 0 as codewords to interpret data received and data to be sent eg. a digital clock, computer signals.
