Let's solve the "Match the time" worksheet step by step.
Objective:
Match each analog clock on the left with the correct digital time on the right.
---
Step 1: Understand how to read an analog clock
- The
hour hand (shorter) points to the hour.
- The
minute hand (longer) points to the minutes. When it's pointing at 12, it's exactly on the hour (e.g., 3:00, 6:00).
- We are matching whole hours (e.g., 3:00, 4:00), so we only need to look at where the
hour hand is pointing.
---
Step 2: Analyze each clock
#### Clock 1 (top one):
- Hour hand is pointing at
3
- Minute hand is at
12
→ Time =
3:00
✔ Already matched to
3:00 (correctly shown in the image).
---
#### Clock 2:
- Hour hand is pointing at
9
- Minute hand is at
12
→ Time =
9:00
Match to:
9:00
---
#### Clock 3:
- Hour hand is pointing at
4
- Minute hand is at
12
→ Time =
4:00
Match to:
4:00
---
#### Clock 4:
- Hour hand is pointing at
6
- Minute hand is at
12
→ Time =
6:00
Match to:
6:00
---
#### Clock 5:
- Hour hand is pointing at
5
- Minute hand is at
12
→ Time =
5:00
Match to:
5:00
---
#### Clock 6 (bottom one):
- Hour hand is pointing at
8
- Minute hand is at
12
→ Time =
8:00
Match to:
8:00
---
Final Matching:
| Clock | Time |
|-------|------|
| 1 | 3:00
✔ (already done) |
| 2 | 9:00 |
| 3 | 4:00 |
| 4 | 6:00 |
| 5 | 5:00 |
| 6 | 8:00 |
---
Answer Summary:
Draw lines from the clocks to the times as follows:
- First clock → 3:00
✔
- Second clock → 9:00
- Third clock → 4:00
- Fourth clock → 6:00
- Fifth clock → 5:00
- Sixth clock → 8:00
This completes the matching task correctly.
