Question 1
What time is shown here?
3 minutes to 9
Quarter past 9
Quarter past 3
Half past 9
The minute hand is a quarter of the way around the clock face
Question 2
What time is it?
6 minutes to 5
5 o'clock
Half past 6
Half past 5
When the minute hand is pointing straight down, it's half past the hour
Question 3
Where would the hands need to go on this clock to show quarter past 4?
Minute hand: 9
Hour hand: 4
Hour hand: 4
Minute hand: 2
Hour hand: just before 4
Hour hand: just before 4
Minute hand: 4
Hour hand: 3
Hour hand: 3
Minute hand: 3
Hour hand: slightly after 4
Hour hand: slightly after 4
The minute hand would be a quarter of the way around the clock. The hour hand would be very slightly after the 4
Question 4
This clock shows just a little after...
2 minutes to 3
Three minutes past 2
Quarter to 3
Quarter past 2
Even though there are no numbers on this clock, the minute hand has moved a quarter of the way around so it's quarter past
Question 5
What time does the clock show?
12 o'clock
6 o'clock
4 o'clock
8 o'clock
The minute hand is pointing straight up so it's 'o'clock' and the hour hand is pointing at the 6
Question 6
What time is shown on this clock face?
Quarter past 8
Quarter past 3
3 minutes past 8
8 minutes to 3
When it is quarter past, the longer minute hand points to the number 3
Question 7
What time is it here?
Quarter to 3
Quarter past 10
Quarter past 3
3 minutes past 10
Another way of saying this time would be 10.15
Question 8
Where would the hands need to go on this clock to show quarter to 7?
Minute hand: 7
Hour hand: 3
Hour hand: 3
Minute hand: 9
Hour hand: nearly at 3
Hour hand: nearly at 3
Minute hand: 9
Hour hand: nearly at 7
Hour hand: nearly at 7
Minute hand: 3
Hour hand: just past 7
Hour hand: just past 7
The minute hand would be pointing straight to the 9 and the hour hand would almost be at 7, but not quite
Question 9
This clock shows just a little after...
12 minutes to 9
9 minutes to 12
Quarter to 9
Quarter to 12
The minute hand has a quarter of the clock left before it reaches the 12, so it's quarter to
Question 10
Where would the hands go to show a time of quarter to 9?
Minute hand: 12
Hour hand: 3
Hour hand: 3
Minute hand: 9
Hour hand: just before 12
Hour hand: just before 12
Minute hand: 9
Hour hand: just after 3
Hour hand: just after 3
Minute hand: 9
Hour hand: almost at 9
Hour hand: almost at 9
The two hands would be very close to each other
