Let’s go through each clock one by one and figure out the time.
Remember:
- The
short hand is the
hour hand.
- The
long hand is the
minute hand.
- When the minute hand points to 12, it’s “o’clock” — meaning :00 minutes.
- When the minute hand points to 6, it’s half past — meaning :30 minutes.
---
Clock 1a:
- Hour hand (short) is pointing at
2.
- Minute hand (long) is pointing at
12.
→ That means it’s
2:00
Clock 1b:
- Hour hand is pointing at
4.
- Minute hand is pointing at
12.
→ That means it’s
4:00
Clock 2a:
- Hour hand is pointing at
9.
- Minute hand is pointing at
12.
→ That means it’s
9:00
Clock 2b:
- Hour hand is pointing at
1.
- Minute hand is pointing at
12.
→ That means it’s
1:00
Clock 3a:
- Hour hand is pointing at
5.
- Minute hand is pointing at
12.
→ That means it’s
5:00
Clock 3b:
- Hour hand is pointing at
12.
- Minute hand is pointing at
12.
→ That means it’s
12:00
All of these are “o’clock” times because the minute hand is always on 12.
Final Answer:
1a. 2:00
1b. 4:00
2a. 9:00
2b. 1:00
3a. 5:00
3b. 12:00
