Dear Hemant

Take 12 o clock time as reference i.e when both the hands are at 12. 

hour hand move 300 in one hour and 600 in two hour

now here 20 min extra that is one third hour extra in one third hour hour hand will move 30/3=100

hence at 2.20 hour hand will make angle 60+10=700 with 12 o clock line

now for minute hand

minute hand move 3600 in one hour that is 60 min

it will move 360/3=1200 in 20 minute

hence angle between both hand will be 120-70=500

 

 All the best.
