Let’s go clock by clock and read the time carefully.
We look at the hour hand (shorter) and minute hand (longer).
The minute hand tells us how many minutes past the hour.
Each number on the clock = 5 minutes for the minute hand.
So if minute hand is on 3 → 15 minutes, on 6 → 30 minutes, etc.
---
Clock 1 (top left):
Hour hand: pointing at 12
Minute hand: pointing at 3 → 3 × 5 = 15 minutes
→ Time:
12:15
Clock 2 (top row, second from left):
Hour hand: between 2 and 3 → so it’s 2 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 7 → 7 × 5 = 35 minutes
→ Time:
2:35
Clock 3 (top row, third from left):
Hour hand: between 4 and 5 → so 4 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 9 → 9 × 5 = 45 minutes
→ Time:
4:45
Clock 4 (top right):
Hour hand: between 10 and 11 → so 10 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 6 → 6 × 5 = 30 minutes
→ Time:
10:30
Clock 5 (bottom left):
Hour hand: between 1 and 2 → so 1 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 5 → 5 × 5 = 25 minutes
→ Time:
1:25
Clock 6 (bottom row, second from left):
Hour hand: just past 9 → so 9 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 2 → 2 × 5 = 10 minutes
→ Time:
9:10
Clock 7 (bottom row, third from left):
Hour hand: between 7 and 8 → so 7 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 10 → 10 × 5 = 50 minutes
→ Time:
7:50
Clock 8 (bottom right):
Hour hand: between 7 and 8 → so 7 o’clock something
Minute hand: pointing at 5 → 5 × 5 = 25 minutes
→ Time:
7:25

Final Answer:
12:15
2:35
4:45
10:30
