It is a device that displays the current time using moving hands and a circular dial marked with hours, minutes, and sometimes seconds.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s called &#8220;analog&#8221; because it represents time through continuous, physical motion, as opposed to digital clocks that use numerical displays. Analog clocks are commonly found in homes, offices, schools, and other public places.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 12 equal divisions on an analog clock, each division representing 30 degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an image of analog clock showing 12 divisions, each further divided into 5 equal parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

Two or three hands rotate to indicate hours, minutes, and sometimes seconds, making it a traditional and visual time-telling tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The hands of a clock rotate on the dial or clock face. The dial is marked with the numbers 1 to 12, which are equally spaced. All these positions represent hours.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Each of these 12 divisions are further divided into 5 small parts, each indicating one minute. Those same marks also indicate seconds for the second hand.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A clock face with minutes typically features minute markers, such as small lines or numerals, around the circumference of the clock dial. These minute indicators help accurately determine the exact minutes when reading the time on an analog clock, allowing for precise timekeeping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>On some clocks or watches, the Arabic numbers might be replaced with roman numerals, but the process of reading the clock works the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"531\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/different-analog-clock-faces-or-dials-1.png\" alt=\"Different analog clock faces or dials\" class=\"wp-image-35820\" title=\"Different analog clock faces or dials\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/different-analog-clock-faces-or-dials-1.png 620w, https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/different-analog-clock-faces-or-dials-1-300x257.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-how-to-read-an-analog-clock\">How to Read an Analog Clock<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s understand how to read a clock and tell time accurately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Read the number of hours<\/strong>: To read an analog clock, first read the hours. Observe the position of the hour hand. When the hour hand is in between two numbers, the number behind the hand is the current hour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Read the number of minutes<\/strong>: Next, we read the minutes. Check the position of the minute hand. There are 12 numbers on the clock. Every number represents the corresponding multiple of 5.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If the minute hand, when it points to 1, it indicates 5 minutes past the current hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it points to 2, it reads 2 5 = 10 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>N<\/strong><strong>ote<\/strong>: When the second hand completes one full rotation around the clock, it indicates 60 seconds or one minute has elapsed. Generally, we don&#8217;t usually mention the number of seconds when indicating the time, unless we need to emphasize precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example 1<\/strong>: In the given clock, the hour hand is between 1 and 2. So, it indicates 1 hour.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The minute hand points to the number 6.

When the clock&#8217;s minute hand points at the number 3, it indicates that a quarter of an hour, or 15 minutes, has passed since the previous hour. For example, if it&#8217;s &#8220;quarter past three,&#8221; the time is 3:15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Half Past:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Half past&#8221; is another time-telling term and signifies 30 minutes past the hour. When the minute hand of the clock points directly at the number 6, it indicates that half of an hour, or 30 minutes, has passed since the previous hour. So, if it&#8217;s &#8220;half past seven,&#8221; the time is 7:30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Quarter To:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Quarter to&#8221; is used to describe a time that is 15 minutes before the next hour. When the clock&#8217;s minute hand points at the number 9, it suggests that there are 15 minutes remaining until the clock strikes the next hour. For instance, if it&#8217;s &#8220;quarter to five,&#8221; the time is 4:45.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"830\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/reading-time-in-quarter-past-quarter-to-and-half-past-1.png\" alt=\"Reading time in quarter past, quarter to, and half past\" class=\"wp-image-35822\" title=\"Reading time in quarter past, quarter to, and half past\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/reading-time-in-quarter-past-quarter-to-and-half-past-1.png 620w, https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/reading-time-in-quarter-past-quarter-to-and-half-past-1-224x300.png 224w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s summarize!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"wj-table-class\"><tbody><tr><td>Quarter Past:<\/td><td>It means 15 minutes past the hour.The minute hand points at 3 on the clock.<\/td><td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"174\" class=\"wp-image-35433\" style=\"width: 150px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/quarter-past-7-on-an-analog-clock.png\" alt=\"Quarter past 7 on an analog clock\"><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Half Past:<\/td><td>It means 30 minutes past the hour.The minute hand points at 6 on the clock.<\/td><td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"174\" class=\"wp-image-35434\" style=\"width: 150px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/half-past-4-on-an-analog-clock.png\" alt=\"Half past 4 on an analog clock\"><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Quarter To:<\/td><td>It means 15 minutes before the next hour.The minute hand points at 9 on the clock.<\/td><td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"174\" class=\"wp-image-35435\" style=\"width: 150px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/quarter-to-8-on-an-analog-clock.png\" alt=\"Quarter to 8 on an analog clock\"><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-how-to-read-the-analog-clock-time-without-marked-numbers\">How to Read the Analog Clock Time without Marked Numbers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Reading a clock without numbered markings can be challenging at first. However, the process is essentially the same as with numbered clocks. We mentally place the numbers and determine where the clock hands point. With practice, telling time without numbers becomes easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"7-how-to-set-an-analog-clock\">How to Set an Analog Clock<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To set the time on an analog clock, locate the knob at the back, which controls the movements of clock-hands. When you turn the knob, the minute hand moves first. To set the desired time, rotate the minute hand to match the hour, and then adjust the minute hand accordingly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example: <\/strong>To set the clock to 2:15, align the hour hand with the 2 and the minute hand with the 3. Similarly, to set it to 4:00, position the hour hand at 4 and the minute hand at 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"8-analog-clock-vs-digital-clock\">Analog Clock vs. Digital Clock<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We use analog and digital clocks on a daily basis.

It divides the day into two 12-hour periods: AM (Ante Meridiem) for morning hours and PM (Post Meridiem) for the afternoon and evening. This clock format is known for its simplicity, making it easy for people to understand and use.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> 9:00 AM is interpreted as nine o&#8217;clock in the morning, while 3:30 PM represents half-past 3 in the afternoon. The 12-hour clock is especially prevalent in casual conversations and non-military contexts and uses &#8220;midnight&#8221; for 12:00 AM and &#8220;noon&#8221; for 12:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>24-Hour Clock:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The 24-hour clock is a time convention that follows a continuous time scale without the distinction of AM and PM. It is often referred to as military time or the &#8220;European&#8221; time format. This clock system counts time from midnight (00:00) to the next midnight (24:00) in a single cycle, emphasizing its continuous nature. It eliminates any ambiguity associated with AM and PM, which can be especially useful in situations requiring precision and clarity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example: <\/strong>14:30 in the 24-hour clock corresponds directly to 2:30 PM in the 12-hour clock. The 24-hour clock is commonly used in aviation, transportation, and scientific contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>How to Convert Between 12-Hour and 24-Hour Time Formats<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>i) To convert from a 12-hour clock to a 24-hour time, simply keep the AM timings (midnight to noon) the same and add 12 to the PM periods (noon to midnight).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, 06:00 AM stays the same as 06:00, but 06:00 PM becomes 18:00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ii) To convert from a 24-hour clock to a 12-hour time, subtract 12 from the hour if it&#8217;s 13:00 or later, and add &#8220;PM&#8221; to the time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, 16:00 becomes 4:00 PM in a 12-hour format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"wj-table-class\"><thead><tr><th><strong>12-hour clock<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>24-hour clock<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>It represents time using a 12-hour cycle with AM (morning) and PM (afternoon\/evening).<\/td><td>It uses a 24-hour cycle without AM\/PM distinction, from 00:00 to 24:00.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Commonly used in everyday life, conversations, and non-military contexts.<\/td><td>Commonly used in aviation, transportation, military contexts, and scientific fields for precision.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Used in analog clocks.<\/td><td>Used in watches, mobiles, laptops, computers, etc.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"10-facts-about-analog-clocks\">Facts about Analog Clocks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"color:#0369a1;background-color:#e0f2fe\" class=\"wp-block-roelmagdaleno-callout-block has-text-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-roelmagdaleno-callout-block-is-layout-8cf370e7 wp-block-roelmagdaleno-callout-block-is-layout-flex\"><div>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Analog clocks use hands to display time.

clock with hands. In the context of an analog clock, \u201canalog\u201d signifies the method of displaying time through hands on a dial rather than using numerical digits. As the clock hands move continuously along their circular paths, they represent an unending sequence of real numbers, marking the ongoing moments of time.
