To find the time shown on the clock with the green circle, follow these steps:
1.
Look at the short hand (the hour hand):
The short hand is pointing between the
7 and the
8. When the hour hand is past a number but hasn't reached the next one yet, we use the smaller number. So, the hour is
7.
2.
Look at the long hand (the minute hand):
The long hand is pointing exactly at the
9. On a clock, each number represents 5 minutes. To find the minutes, you can count by 5s up to the 9:
* 1 is 5
* 2 is 10
* ...
* 8 is 40
* 9 is
45
Alternatively, you can multiply the number the hand points to by 5: $9 \times 5 = 45$. So, the minutes are
45.
3.
Put it together:
The hour is 7 and the minutes are 45.
Final Answer:
7:45
