To solve this worksheet, we need to read each analog clock and write down the time. The instructions say to print the time to the
nearest minute.
Here is how to read each clock:
1. Look at the short hand (hour hand) to see which number it is closest to or has just passed. This gives you the hour.
2. Look at the long hand (minute hand). Each small mark on the clock represents 1 minute. The big numbers represent 5 minutes (1 is 5, 2 is 10, 3 is 15, etc.). Count the small marks past the last big number to get the exact minutes.
Let's go through them one by one:
Clock 1:
* Hour hand: Just past 4. So, the hour is 4.
* Minute hand: Points to the 4th small mark past the 3 (which is 15). $15 + 4 = 19$.
* Time:
4:19
Clock 2:
* Hour hand: Just past 1. So, the hour is 1.
* Minute hand: Points exactly to the 1. $1 \times 5 = 5$.
* Time:
1:05
Clock 3:
* Hour hand: Between 6 and 7. So, the hour is 6.
* Minute hand: Points to the 3rd small mark past the 4 (which is 20). $20 + 3 = 23$.
* Time:
6:23
Clock 4:
* Hour hand: Just past 1. So, the hour is 1.
* Minute hand: Points exactly to the 2. $2 \times 5 = 10$.
* Time:
1:10
Clock 5:
* Hour hand: Points exactly at 3. So, the hour is 3.
* Minute hand: Points exactly at 12. This means 00 minutes.
* Time:
3:00
Clock 6:
* Hour hand: Just past 12. So, the hour is 12.
* Minute hand: Points to the 4th small mark past the 1 (which is 5). $5 + 4 = 9$.
* Time:
12:09
Clock 7:
* Hour hand: Between 1 and 2. So, the hour is 1.
* Minute hand: Points to the 4th small mark past the 4 (which is 20). $20 + 4 = 24$.
* Time:
1:24
Clock 8:
* Hour hand: Almost at 11, but still in the 10s section. So, the hour is 10.
* Minute hand: Points to the 1st small mark past the 10 (which is 50). $50 + 1 = 51$.
* Time:
10:51
Clock 9:
* Hour hand: Almost at 10, but still in the 9s section. So, the hour is 9.
* Minute hand: Points exactly to the 9. $9 \times 5 = 45$.
* Time:
9:45
Clock 10:
* Hour hand: Just past 1. So, the hour is 1.
* Minute hand: Points to the 2nd small mark past the 1 (which is 5). $5 + 2 = 7$.
* Time:
1:07
Clock 11:
* Hour hand: Almost at 12, but still in the 11s section. So, the hour is 11.
* Minute hand: Points exactly to the 1. $1 \times 5 = 5$.
* Time:
11:05
Clock 12:
* Hour hand: Just past 2. So, the hour is 2.
* Minute hand: Points exactly to the 2. $2 \times 5 = 10$.
* Time:
2:10
Final Answer:
1. 4:19
2. 1:05
3. 6:23
4. 1:10
5. 3:00
6. 12:09
7. 1:24
8. 10:51
9. 9:45
10. 1:07
11. 11:05
12. 2:10
