1.

12 PM
12 AM
6 PM
6 AM
Every 24 hours the time falls on the same point. 72 is a multiple of 24 so it will be 12 noon again after 72 hours.
2.
What time did a film start, if it finished at 9:30 PM and lasted for 2 hours and 45 minutes?
6:45 PM
7:00 PM
6:30 PM
7:15 PM
Subtracting 2 hours from 9:30 PM gives 7:30 PM and subtracting an additional 45 minutes gives the start time of 6:45 PM.
3.
A school day starts at 9:00 AM and ends at 3:30 PM. How long is the school day?
5 hours
5 hours 30 minutes
6 hours
6 hours 30 minutes
From 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM is 3 hours, from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM is another 3 hours, and 30 minutes more until 3:30 PM, which totals 6 hours 30 minutes.
4.
How many minutes are there in three quarters of an hour?
20 minutes
30 minutes
45 minutes
60 minutes
As there are 60 minutes in an hour, three quarters of an hour would be 3⁄4 x 60 = 45 minutes.
5.
In the time it takes for the minute hand to move from the number 3 to the number 6, how many minutes have passed?
5 minutes
10 minutes
15 minutes
20 minutes
The time taken for the minute hand to move from one number to another on the clock face represents 5 minutes. So the movement from 3 to 6 represents 3 numbers or 15 minutes.
6.
What time will it be 2 hours and 35 minutes after 10:20 AM?
11:55 AM
12:55 PM
1:55 PM
2:55 PM
Adding 2 hours to 10:20 AM makes it 12:20 PM, then adding 35 minutes more gives the time of 12:55 PM.
7.
If a football match started at 3:15 PM and ended at 5:00 PM, how long did it last?

Start from 3:15 PM, add 45 minutes to reach 4:00 PM, then add another hour to reach 5:00 PM. Thus, the match lasted 1 hour, 45 minutes.
