Let’s solve each row step by step.
---
Row 1:
Start Time clock:
Hour hand is between 1 and 2 → so it’s 1 o’clock something.
Minute hand points to 5 → 5 × 5 = 25 minutes.
→ Start Time:
1:25
End Time clock:
Hour hand is between 3 and 4 → so it’s 3 o’clock something.
Minute hand points to 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes.
→ End Time:
3:55
Elapsed time from 1:25 to 3:55:
From 1:25 to 3:25 is 2 hours.
From 3:25 to 3:55 is 30 minutes.
Total:
2 hours 30 minutes

Row 2:
Start Time clock:
Hour hand between 5 and 6 → 5 o’clock.
Minute hand on 2 → 2 × 5 = 10 minutes.
→ Start Time:
5:10
End Time clock:
Hour hand between 8 and 9 → 8 o’clock.
Minute hand on 3 → 3 × 5 = 15 minutes.
→ End Time:
8:15
Elapsed time from 5:10 to 8:15:
From 5:10 to 8:10 is 3 hours.
From 8:10 to 8:15 is 5 minutes.
Total:
3 hours 5 minutes

Row 3:
Start Time clock:
Hour hand between 9 and 10 → 9 o’clock.
Minute hand on 3 → 3 × 5 = 15 minutes.
→ Start Time:
9:15
End Time clock:
Hour hand between 10 and 11 → 10 o’clock.
Minute hand on 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes.
→ End Time:
10:55
Elapsed time from 9:15 to 10:55:
From 9:15 to 10:15 is 1 hour.
From 10:15 to 10:55 is 40 minutes.
Total:
1 hour 40 minutes

Row 4:
Start Time clock:
Hour hand between 10 and 11 → 10 o’clock.
Minute hand on 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes.
→ Start Time:
10:55
End Time clock:
Hour hand between 3 and 4 → 3 o’clock.
Minute hand on 6 → 6 × 5 = 30 minutes.
→ End Time:
3:30
Wait — this goes from 10:55 to 3:30? That must be afternoon, since 3:30 comes after 10:55 in the same day (assuming AM to PM).
So: From 10:55 AM to 3:30 PM.
Break it down:
From 10:55 to 11:00 → 5 minutes
From 11:00 to 3:00 → 4 hours
From 3:00 to 3:30 → 30 minutes
Total: 5 min + 4 hr + 30 min =
4 hours 35 minutes
Alternatively:
From 10:55 to 3:55 would be 5 hours, but we stop at 3:30, which is 25 minutes earlier → 5 hours - 25 minutes = 4 hours 35 minutes. Same answer.
