Open in App
Solution
In a clock, a quarter stands for 15 minutes.
Thus, quarter to six would mean 15 minutes before 6:00 (which is 5:45).
To represent 5:45 on an analog clock:
- The hour hand should be between 5 and 6.
- The minute hand should be at 9 as 5×9=45 minutes.
Thus, the correct option:
Thus, quarter to six would mean 15 minutes before 6:00 (which is 5:45).
To represent 5:45 on an analog clock:
