To solve the problem, we need to match the times in column "a" with their corresponding descriptions in column "1". Let's break it down step by step:
Column "a": Times
1.
6:30
2.
4:15
3.
9:30
4.
10:45
5.
7:15
6.
3:15
7.
1:45
8.
5:30
Column "1": Descriptions
1.
Quarter past 7
2.
Quarter to 11
3.
Half past 6
4.
Quarter past 4
5.
Half past 9
6.
Quarter to 2
7.
Half past 5
8.
Quarter past 3
Matching Process:
1.
6:30
- This is "Half past 6" because 30 minutes past 6 is halfway through the hour.
- Match:
6:30 → Half past 6 (3)
2.
4:15
- This is "Quarter past 4" because 15 minutes past 4 is a quarter of an hour.
- Match:
4:15 → Quarter past 4 (4)
3.
9:30
- This is "Half past 9" because 30 minutes past 9 is halfway through the hour.
- Match:
9:30 → Half past 9 (5)
4.
10:45
- This is "Quarter to 11" because 45 minutes past 10 is 15 minutes before 11.
- Match:
10:45 → Quarter to 11 (2)
5.
7:15
- This is "Quarter past 7" because 15 minutes past 7 is a quarter of an hour.
- Match:
7:15 → Quarter past 7 (1)
6.
3:15
- This is "Quarter past 3" because 15 minutes past 3 is a quarter of an hour.
- Match:
3:15 → Quarter past 3 (8)
7.
1:45
- This is "Quarter to 2" because 45 minutes past 1 is 15 minutes before 2.
- Match:
1:45 → Quarter to 2 (6)
8.
5:30
- This is "Half past 5" because 30 minutes past 5 is halfway through the hour.
- Match:
5:30 → Half past 5 (7)
Final Matches:
-
a. 6:30 → 3. Half past 6
-
b. 4:15 → 4. Quarter past 4
-
c. 9:30 → 5. Half past 9
-
d. 10:45 → 2. Quarter to 11
-
e. 7:15 → 1. Quarter past 7
-
f. 3:15 → 8. Quarter past 3
-
g. 1:45 → 6. Quarter to 2
-
h. 5:30 → 7. Half past 5
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
a. 6:30 & \rightarrow 3. \text{Half past 6} \\
b. 4:15 & \rightarrow 4. \text{Quarter past 4} \\
c. 9:30 & \rightarrow 5. \text{Half past 9} \\
d. 10:45 & \rightarrow 2. \text{Quarter to 11} \\
e. 7:15 & \rightarrow 1. \text{Quarter past 7} \\
f. 3:15 & \rightarrow 8. \text{Quarter past 3} \\
g. 1:45 & \rightarrow 6. \text{Quarter to 2} \\
h. 5:30 & \rightarrow 7. \text{Half past 5} \\
\end{array}
}
