The image you uploaded appears to be a worksheet titled "Tell the Time: Writing the Time," which involves reading analog clocks and writing down the time they display. Below is a step-by-step explanation of how to solve such problems, along with an example.

Steps to Solve Analog Clock Problems
1.
Identify the Hour Hand:
- The hour hand is the shorter hand on the clock.
- It points to the hour. If it is between two numbers, the time is closer to the lower number.
2.
Identify the Minute Hand:
- The minute hand is the longer hand on the clock.
- It points to the minutes past the hour. Each number on the clock represents 5 minutes (e.g., 1 = 5 minutes, 2 = 10 minutes, etc.).
3.
Determine the Exact Time:
- Combine the hour from the hour hand and the minutes from the minute hand.
- If the minute hand is exactly on a number, multiply that number by 5 to get the exact minutes.
- If the minute hand is not on a number, estimate the minutes based on its position.
4.
Write the Time:
- Write the time in the format:
Hour:Minutes (e.g., 3:15).

Example Problem and Solution
Let’s take one of the clocks from the worksheet as an example:
####
Clock Example:
- The hour hand is between 2 and 3.
- The minute hand is pointing at 6.
####
Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
Hour Hand:
- The hour hand is between 2 and 3, so the hour is
2.
2.
Minute Hand:
- The minute hand is pointing at 6.
- Since each number represents 5 minutes, 6 × 5 =
30 minutes.
3.
Combine the Time:
- The hour is 2, and the minutes are 30.
- Therefore, the time is
2:30.
4.
Write the Time:
- Write
2:30 in the space provided.

General Tips for Solving All Clocks:
- Practice identifying whether the time is closer to the previous hour or the next hour based on the position of the hour hand.
- Remember that the minute hand moves in increments of 5 minutes per number.
- For times like 7:00, 10:00, etc., the minute hand will be pointing directly at 12.
