Let’s solve this step by step.
We need to match each analog clock (the round clocks with hands) to the correct digital time from the list on the right.
First, let’s look at how to read an analog clock:
- The short hand is the hour hand.
- The long hand is the minute hand.
- Each number on the clock = 5 minutes for the minute hand.
- So if the minute hand points to 1 → 5 minutes, to 2 → 10 minutes, etc.
Now let’s go one by one:
---
Top left clock:
- Hour hand: just past 1 → so it’s 1 o’clock something.
- Minute hand: pointing at 2 → that’s 10 minutes.
→ Time:
1:10
Match with:
1:10 ✔
---
Top right clock:
- Hour hand: between 4 and 5 → closer to 5? Wait — actually, hour hand is near 5 but not quite there. Let’s check minute hand first.
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes.
- Since minute hand is at 55, the hour hand should be almost at the next hour. It’s pointing just before 5 → so it’s 4:55.
→ Time:
4:55
Match with:
4:55 ✔
---
Second row, left clock:
- Hour hand: exactly on 1 → 1 o’clock.
- Minute hand: pointing at 6 → 6 × 5 = 30 minutes.
→ Time:
1:30
Match with:
1:30 ✔
---
Second row, right clock:
- Hour hand: between 3 and 4 → closer to 4? Let’s see minute hand.
- Minute hand: pointing at 10 → 10 × 5 = 50 minutes.
- So it’s 3:50 (because hour hand hasn’t reached 4 yet).
→ Time:
3:50
Match with:
3:50 ✔
---
Third row, left clock:
- Hour hand: between 5 and 6 → closer to 6? Check minute hand.
- Minute hand: pointing at 8 → 8 × 5 = 40 minutes.
→ So it’s 5:40
Match with:
5:40 ✔
---
Third row, right clock:
- Hour hand: between 12 and 1 → very close to 1? Wait — minute hand is at 5 → 25 minutes.
- Hour hand is just past 12 → so it’s 12:25
→ Time:
12:25
Match with:
12:25 ✔
---
Fourth row, left clock:
- Hour hand: between 8 and 9 → closer to 8? Minute hand at 1 → 5 minutes.
→ So it’s 8:05
Match with:
8:05 ✔
---
Fourth row, right clock:
- Hour hand: between 5 and 6 → minute hand at 9 → 45 minutes.
→ So it’s 5:45
Match with:
5:45 ✔
---
Fifth row, left clock:
- Hour hand: between 7 and 8 → minute hand at 6 → 30 minutes.
→ So it’s 7:30
Match with:
7:30 ✔
---
Fifth row, right clock:
- Hour hand: exactly on 2 → 2 o’clock.
- Minute hand: exactly on 12 → 0 minutes.
→ So it’s 2:00
Match with:
2:00 ✔
---
All matched! Let’s double-check we used all times:
Digital times given:
2:00, 12:25, 5:45, 3:50, 4:55, 1:10, 7:30, 8:05, 5:40, 1:30 → 10 total.
We matched 10 clocks → perfect.
Final Answer:
Top left → 1:10
Top right → 4:55
Second row left → 1:30
Second row right → 3:50
Third row left → 5:40
Third row right → 12:25
Fourth row left → 8:05
Fourth row right → 5:45
Fifth row left → 7:30
Fifth row right → 2:00
