1hr=30degree.
The gap btw 8to 2is 6hrs.
Then the hour hand move is 6*30=180 degrees.

1 hour is 30°
So, the total time duration between 8 am to 2 pm is 6 hours.
So finally 6hours*30° ------> 6*30 = 180deg;.

@Rupa.
If the first time is 1'o'clock a second time is 3'o'clock then definitely you will take between 1 & 3 = 60°.
On the other hand, if it is mentioned as first time 3 and the second time 1 then you will take between 3 & 1 = 300°.

The difference between morning 8 o'clock and afternoon 2 o'clock is 6 hours.
Then we know that 1 hour =30°.
6 hours = 6*30=180°.
Then we know that 1 hour =30°.
6 hours = 6*30=180°.
