Step 2

To read an analog clock, we look at the short hour hand first to find the hour, and then the long minute hand. Each number on the clock face represents a five-minute interval.

Step 3

Starting from the bottom with clock one, the short hand is between three and four, which means the hour is three. The long hand is on nine, representing forty-five minutes. So, the time is three forty-five a.m.

(i): 3:45 a.m.

Step 4

Moving up to clock two, the hour hand is between one and two, so it is one o'clock. The minute hand points to four, which means twenty minutes have passed. This gives us one twenty p.m.

(ii): 1:20 p.m.
