Let’s match each clock to the correct digital time by looking at where the hour and minute hands are pointing.
---
Clock 1 (top left):
- Hour hand is just past 6 → so it’s 6 o’clock something.
- Minute hand points to 12 minutes (each number = 5 minutes, so 2 numbers past 10? Wait — let’s count: from 12, each small mark is 1 minute. The minute hand is on the 12th mark after 12 → that’s 12 minutes.
→ So this clock shows
6:12
Clock 2 (top right):
- Hour hand is between 8 and 9, closer to 8 → so 8 o’clock.
- Minute hand is on the 28th minute mark (counting from 12: 5×5=25, then 3 more marks → 28).
→ So this clock shows
8:28
Clock 3 (middle center):
- Hour hand is between 5 and 6, closer to 5 → so 5 o’clock.
- Minute hand is on the 18th minute mark (5×3=15, plus 3 more → 18).
→ So this clock shows
5:18
Clock 4 (bottom left):
- Hour hand is between 3 and 4, closer to 4 → but wait, actually, since the minute hand is near 42, the hour hand should be almost at 4. Let’s check:
Minute hand is on 42 (5×8=40, plus 2 → 42).
Hour hand is just before 4 → so it’s 3:42.
→ This clock shows
3:42
Clock 5 (bottom center):
- Hour hand is almost at 12, but not quite — it’s between 11 and 12.
- Minute hand is on 49 (5×9=45, plus 4 → 49).
→ So this clock shows
11:49
Clock 6 (right middle):
- Hour hand is just past 9 → so 9 o’clock.
- Minute hand is on the 4th minute mark → 4 minutes.
→ So this clock shows
9:04

Now let’s pair them up:
- Top-left clock →
6:12
- Top-right clock →
8:28
- Middle-center clock →
5:18
- Bottom-left clock →
3:42
- Bottom-center clock →
11:49
- Right-middle clock →
9:04
All matched correctly!
Final Answer:
Top-left clock matches 6:12
Top-right clock matches 8:28
Middle-center clock matches 5:18
Bottom-left clock matches 3:42
Bottom-center clock matches 11:49
Right-middle clock matches 9:04
