Let's solve each of the clock problems step by step.

Understanding the Clock:
- The
hour hand (shorter hand) points to the hour.
- The
minute hand (longer hand) points to the minutes. When it points to 12, it's "o'clock" (0 minutes).
- Each number on the clock represents 5 minutes (e.g., 1 = 5 minutes, 2 = 10 minutes, etc.).
