3:46

the

3:46

number 12 to zero imagine it's the

3:48

number zero step two is to count the

3:52

number of minutes to the minute hand

3:55

step three is to say the word p and step

3:58

four is to say the whole number before

4:02

the hour hand now to save you counting

4:05

all of the individual minutes each whole

4:08

number actually represents five minutes

4:10

so the number one is five past number

4:13

two is 10 past number three is a little

4:15

bit different we don't say 15 past we

4:18

say quarter past number four is 20 past

4:22

number five is 25 past and number six is

4:26

also irregular not 30 past but half past

4:30
