Let’s go clock by clock and figure out the time.
Remember:
- The short hand is the
hour hand.
- The long hand is the
minute hand.
- Each number on the clock = 5 minutes for the minute hand.
- If the minute hand points to 12, it’s “o’clock”.
- If it points to 6, it’s half past (30 minutes).
- We count by 5s: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55.

Clock 1 (top left):
- Hour hand: between 7 and 8 → so hour is 7
- Minute hand: pointing at 1 → that’s 5 minutes
→ Time:
7:05
Clock 2 (top middle):
- Hour hand: just before 2 → so hour is 1 (because it hasn’t reached 2 yet)
- Minute hand: pointing at 10 → 10 × 5 = 50 minutes
→ Time:
1:50
Clock 3 (top right):
- Hour hand: between 7 and 8 → hour is 7
- Minute hand: pointing at 7 → 7 × 5 = 35 minutes
→ Time:
7:35
Clock 4 (middle left):
- Hour hand: between 5 and 6 → hour is 5
- Minute hand: pointing at 5 → 5 × 5 = 25 minutes
→ Time:
5:25
Clock 5 (middle middle):
- Hour hand: between 4 and 5 → hour is 4
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes
→ Time:
4:55
Clock 6 (middle right):
- Hour hand: between 2 and 3 → hour is 2
- Minute hand: pointing at 8 → 8 × 5 = 40 minutes
→ Time:
2:40
Clock 7 (bottom left):
- Hour hand: between 9 and 10 → hour is 9
- Minute hand: pointing at 1 → 1 × 5 = 5 minutes
→ Time:
9:05
Clock 8 (bottom middle):
- Hour hand: between 9 and 10 → hour is 9
- Minute hand: pointing at 8 → 8 × 5 = 40 minutes
→ Time:
9:40
Clock 9 (bottom right):
- Hour hand: between 10 and 11 → hour is 10
- Minute hand: pointing at 11 → 11 × 5 = 55 minutes
→ Time:
10:55
