Let’s go clock by clock and figure out the time shown on each one.
We know:
- The short hand is the
hour hand.
- The long hand is the
minute hand.
- Each number on the clock = 5 minutes (so 1 = 5 min, 2 = 10 min, ..., 12 = 60 min or 0 min).
- When the minute hand points to 12, it’s “o’clock” — meaning :00.
- When it points to 6, it’s half past — :30.
- We count by 5s for the minutes: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55.
---
Clock 1 (top left):
- Hour hand: between 4 and 5 → so hour is 4.
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes.
→ Time:
4:55
Clock 2 (top middle):
- Hour hand: pointing at 6.
- Minute hand: pointing at 12 → 0 minutes.
→ Time:
6:00
Clock 3 (top right):
- Hour hand: just after 6.
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 55 minutes.
→ Time:
6:55
Clock 4 (middle left):
- Hour hand: between 7 and 8 → hour is 7.
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 55 minutes.
→ Time:
7:55
Clock 5 (middle middle):
- Hour hand: between 8 and 9 → hour is 8.
- Minute hand: pointing at 1 → 5 minutes.
→ Time:
8:05
Clock 6 (middle right):
- Hour hand: between 8 and 9 → hour is 8.
- Minute hand: pointing at 8 → 8 × 5 = 40 minutes.
→ Time:
8:40
Clock 7 (bottom left):
- Hour hand: between 10 and 11 → hour is 10.
- Minute hand: pointing at 5 → 5 × 5 = 25 minutes.
→ Time:
10:25
Clock 8 (bottom middle):
- Hour hand: between 10 and 11 → hour is 10.
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 55 minutes.
→ Time:
10:55
Clock 9 (bottom right):
- Hour hand: between 10 and 11 → hour is 10.
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 55 minutes.
→ Time:
10:55
Wait — let me double-check Clock 9. Yes, same as Clock 8? Actually, looking again — yes, both bottom middle and bottom right show 10:55. That’s okay — sometimes worksheets repeat times.
But wait — let me check Clock 9 again carefully.
Hour hand: closer to 11? No — still between 10 and 11, but very close to 11? Actually, if minute hand is at 11 (55 min), the hour hand should be almost at 11. But in the drawing, it looks like it’s still between 10 and 11 — so 10:55 is correct.
Actually, let me recheck all clocks once more to be sure.
