short answer

150o

long answer

a hour hand pointing at 5 and the minute hand pointing at 12.

the calculation is as follows

5(360/12) = 150

the 12 is because their are 12 numbers on a clock, ie the clock is divided evenly into twelfths. 5 is the fifth number after 12 so the resulting number is multiplied by 5
