To tell the time on these clocks, we look at where the hands are pointing.
* The
short hand is the hour hand. It tells us the hour.
* The
long hand is the minute hand. When it points straight up to the 12, it means it is exactly "o'clock."
So, we just need to see which number the short hand is pointing to.
Row 1:
1. The short hand points to
2. The time is
2 o’clock.
2. The short hand points to
9. The time is
9 o’clock.
3. The short hand points to
11. The time is
11 o’clock.
Row 2:
4. The short hand points to
5. The time is
5 o’clock.
5. The short hand points to
8. The time is
8 o’clock.
6. The short hand points to
6. The time is
6 o’clock.
Row 3:
7. The short hand points to
7. The time is
7 o’clock.
8. The short hand points to
10. The time is
10 o’clock.
9. The short hand points to
3. The time is
3 o’clock.
Final Answer:
2 o’clock, 9 o’clock, 11 o’clock
5 o’clock, 8 o’clock, 6 o’clock
7 o’clock, 10 o’clock, 3 o’clock
