Answer
To tell the time on an analog clock, we look at the positions of the hour hand and the minute hand.
- The shorter hand is the hour hand. It is pointing directly at the number 3. This means the hour is 3.
- The longer hand is the minute hand. It is pointing directly at the number 8. To find the minutes, we multiply the number by 5 (since there are 5 minutes between each number on the clock face). Minutes = 8 × 5 = 40 minutes.
The time shown on the clock is 3:40.
