Let’s go step by step to match each clock letter (a–p) with the correct time description (1–16).
We’ll read each clock carefully:
---
Clock a: Hour hand on 3, minute hand on 12 →
3 o’clock → matches #4
Clock b: Hour hand on 5, minute hand on 12 →
5 o’clock → matches #3
Clock c: Hour hand on 7, minute hand on 12 →
7 o’clock → matches #2
Clock d: Hour hand on 10, minute hand on 12 →
10 o’clock → matches #1
→ So:
a = 4
b = 3
c = 2
d = 1
---
Clock e: Hour hand between 1 and 2, minute hand on 6 → half past 1 →
half past one → matches #7
Clock f: Hour hand between 4 and 5, minute hand on 6 → half past 4 →
half past four → matches #6
Clock g: Hour hand between 6 and 7, minute hand on 6 → half past 6 →
half past six → matches #8
Clock h: Hour hand between 11 and 12, minute hand on 6 → half past 11 →
half past eleven → matches #5
→ So:
e = 7
f = 6
g = 8
h = 5
---
Clock i: Hour hand just after 5, minute hand on 3 → quarter past 5 →
quarter past five → matches #11
Clock j: Hour hand just after 12, minute hand on 3 → quarter past 12 →
quarter past twelve → matches #12
Clock k: Hour hand just after 9, minute hand on 3 → quarter past 9 →
quarter past nine → matches #10
Clock l: Hour hand just after 7, minute hand on 3 → quarter past 7 →
quarter past seven → matches #9
→ So:
i = 11
j = 12
k = 10
l = 9
---
Clock m: Hour hand close to 4, minute hand on 9 → quarter to 4 →
quarter to four → matches #13
Clock n: Hour hand close to 1, minute hand on 9 → quarter to 1 →
quarter to one → matches #16
Clock o: Hour hand close to 11, minute hand on 9 → quarter to 11 →
quarter to eleven → matches #15
Clock p: Hour hand close to 8, minute hand on 9 → quarter to 8 →
quarter to eight → matches #14
→ So:
m = 13
n = 16
o = 15
p = 14
---
Now let’s list all answers in order from a to p:
a = 4
b = 3
c = 2
d = 1
e = 7
f = 6
g = 8
h = 5
i = 11
j = 12
k = 10
l = 9
m = 13
n = 16
o = 15
p = 14
---
Final Answer:
a=4, b=3, c=2, d=1, e=7, f=6, g=8, h=5, i=11, j=12, k=10, l=9, m=13, n=16, o=15, p=14
