Reading and wRiting time in houRs and minutes

We know that there are 12 numbers on the clock’s face and 1 2 3 4
there are equal number of markings, between each of the 55 60 5
two consecutive numbers. 12
50 11 1 10
There are 60 markings on the whole dial. Each marking 10 2
represent a minute. 45 9 3 15
8 4
The minute hand takes 1 minute to move from one marking 40 7 6 5 20

to the next.
35 25
30
There are total 60 minutes in 1 hour.
That is, 1 hour = 60 minutes

Since, 60 minutes ÷ 12 = 5 minutes, therefore the 60
55
difference between two big markings is 5 minutes. 12
50 11 1 10
When the minute hand moves from one marking to the 10 2 11 12 13 14
next, 1 minute has passed. 45 9 3 15

Similarly, when the minute hand touches the number 2, 8 4

it means 2 × 5 = 10 minutes have passed. 40 7 6 5 20
The next marking of number 3 shows 3 × 5 = 15 minutes. 35 30 25

The four small markings between numbers 2 and 3 shows 11, 12, 13 and 14 minutes
respectively.
