Let’s solve each clock problem step by step.
---
First Clock:
The hour hand is pointing at 8, and the minute hand is pointing at 12 → that means it’s
8:00.
1. What time is it on the clock?
→
8:00
2. What time will it be in 3 hours?
8 + 3 = 11 →
11:00
3. What time will it be in 10 minutes?
8:00 + 10 min =
8:10
4. What time was it 30 minutes ago?
8:00 - 30 min =
7:30
---
Second Clock:
Hour hand is between 9 and 10 (closer to 9), minute hand is on 6 → that’s
9:30
1. What time is it on the clock?
→
9:30
2. What time will it be in 5 minutes?
9:30 + 5 min =
9:35
3. What time will it be in 4 hours?
9:30 + 4 hrs = 13:30 → but we use 12-hour format →
1:30
4. What time was it 10 minutes ago?
9:30 - 10 min =
9:20
---
Third Clock:
Hour hand is just past 10, minute hand is on 12 → that’s
10:00
Wait — actually, looking again: the red second hand is pointing at 2, but that doesn’t affect the time for this level. The hour hand is on 10, minute hand on 12 → still
10:00
But wait — let me double-check: sometimes if the hour hand is *between* numbers, you go by where it’s closer to. Here, it’s exactly on 10? Actually, no — look carefully: the hour hand is slightly past 10? But since the minute hand is on 12, it must be exactly 10:00.
Actually — hold on! In the third clock, the minute hand is on 12, so it’s an exact hour. Hour hand is on 10 →
10:00
But wait — the red hand (second hand) is pointing at 2 — that’s irrelevant for telling time in Grade 2. We ignore seconds unless asked.
So:
1. What time is it on the clock?
→
10:00
2. What time will it be in 25 minutes?
10:00 + 25 min =
10:25
3. What time will it be in 6 hours?
10:00 + 6 hrs = 16:00 → in 12-hour format:
4:00
4. What time was it 15 minutes ago?
10:00 - 15 min =
9:45
