What angle (in degrees) does the hour hand describe in 1 hour 44 minutes?

In 12 hours, the hour hand makes a full revolution and makes a full circle, which is 360 degrees.
There are 720 minutes in 12 hours.
1) 12 * 60 = 720 (min.) In 12 hours

In 12 hours (full revolution), the hour hand rotates 360 degrees and during this time 720 minutes pass.
This means that the hand rotates 0.5 degrees for every minute.
2) 360: 720 = 0.5 (deg / min) describes the hour hand in 1 minute.

Let’s translate the given time into minutes.
3) 1h. 44min. = 60min. + 44min. = 104 (min.) Set time.

4) 104 * 0.5 = 52 (degrees) is described by the hour hand in 1 hour. 44min.

Answer: 52 degrees.
