Well, all of us have read this question differently.

I would like to go by the principle that the Hour Hand moves one step when the Minutes Hand makes 12 steps. Which means the Hour Hand would have moved from number 12 to number 1 when the Minutes Hand has travelled full circle. So, that is how a clcok with hands is supposed to work.

Based on that principle, as some of us have agreed, the two hands would cross each other for 24 times in 24 hours. Here is how it happens:

00:00 [Midnight, start of the day]
01:05
02:05
03:16
04:21
05:27
06:32
07:38
08:43
09:49
10:54
11:59
12:00 [Noon]
13:05
14:05
15:16
14:21
15:27
18:32
19:38
20:43
21:49
22:54
23:59 [End of 24 hour cycle, we can not count 00:00 again !]

In a 12 hour era, it is going to likely be extra or less those situations 12.00 am = a million a million.05 pm = 2 2.10pm = 3 3.15pm = 4 4.20pm = 5 5.25pm = 6 6.30pm = 7 7.35pm = 8 8.40pm = 9 9.45pm = 10 10.50pm = 11 11.55pm = 12 12.00pm = 13 13 situations it crosses over the hour hand
