Problem Description:

The task is to draw the time on each clock face based on the given times. The times are provided in a 12-hour format (e.g., 11:15 am, 7:20 pm). Each clock face has hour and minute hands that need to be positioned correctly to represent the given time.

Solution Approach:

To solve this problem, we need to understand how to position the hour and minute hands on a clock:

1. Minute Hand Positioning:
- The minute hand moves around the clock in increments of 5 minutes per number.
- For example:
- At 0 minutes, the minute hand points at 12.
- At 15 minutes, the minute hand points at 3.
- At 30 minutes, the minute hand points at 6.
- At 45 minutes, the minute hand points at 9.

2. Hour Hand Positioning:
- The hour hand moves gradually between the hour numbers as time progresses.
- For example:
- At exactly 11:00, the hour hand points at 11.
- At 11:15, the hour hand is one-quarter of the way between 11 and 12.
- At 11:30, the hour hand is halfway between 11 and 12.
- At 11:45, the hour hand is three-quarters of the way between 11 and 12.

3. AM vs PM:
- AM and PM do not affect the positioning of the hands but indicate whether it is morning or evening.

Step-by-Step Solution:

#### 1. 11:15 am
- Minute Hand: Points at 3 (15 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Between 11 and 12, closer to 11 (one-quarter of the way).

#### 2. 7:20 pm
- Minute Hand: Points at 4 (20 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Between 7 and 8, closer to 7 (two-fifths of the way).

#### 3. 4:05 am
- Minute Hand: Points just past 1 (5 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Just past 4 (one-twelfth of the way between 4 and 5).

#### 4. 8:45 pm
- Minute Hand: Points at 9 (45 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Between 8 and 9, closer to 9 (three-quarters of the way).

#### 5. 1:35 pm
- Minute Hand: Points at 7 (35 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Between 1 and 2, closer to 2 (seven-tenths of the way).

#### 6. 2:30 am
- Minute Hand: Points at 6 (30 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Halfway between 2 and 3.

#### 7. 9:15 pm
- Minute Hand: Points at 3 (15 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Between 9 and 10, closer to 9 (one-quarter of the way).

#### 8. 8:40 am
- Minute Hand: Points at 8 (40 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Between 8 and 9, closer to 9 (four-fifths of the way).

#### 9. 3:30 pm
- Minute Hand: Points at 6 (30 minutes).
- Hour Hand: Halfway between 3 and 4.

Final Answer:

The times should be drawn on the clocks as follows:

1. 11:15 am: Minute hand at 3, hour hand between 11 and 12.
2. 7:20 pm: Minute hand at 4, hour hand between 7 and 8.
3. 4:05 am: Minute hand just past 1, hour hand just past 4.
4. 8:45 pm: Minute hand at 9, hour hand between 8 and 9.
5. 1:35 pm: Minute hand at 7, hour hand between 1 and 2.
6. 2:30 am: Minute hand at 6, hour hand halfway between 2 and 3.
7. 9:15 pm: Minute hand at 3, hour hand between 9 and 10.
8. 8:40 am: Minute hand at 8, hour hand between 8 and 9.
9. 3:30 pm: Minute hand at 6, hour hand halfway between 3 and 4.
