    What time is shown in the clock?

    • 2 o'clock

    • 6 o'clock

    • Half past two

    Correct Answer
    A. Half past two
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "half past two" because the position of the clock hands indicates that the hour hand is pointing towards the 2 and the minute hand is pointing towards the 6. In a clock, when the minute hand is pointing at the 6, it indicates that it is half past the hour. Therefore, the time shown in the clock is half past two.

    • 7:00

    Correct Answer
    A. 7:00
    Explanation
    Gabby left the house at 6:30 A.M. and arrived at school 30 minutes later. This means that she spent 30 minutes traveling from her house to the school. Therefore, if we add 30 minutes to the time she left the house, we can determine the time she arrived at school. Adding 30 minutes to 6:30 A.M. gives us 7:00 A.M., which is the correct answer.

    A tool used to measure time in days, weeks and months is called;

    • Calendar

    • Clock

    • Ruler

    Correct Answer
    A. Calendar
    Explanation
    A calendar is a tool that is used to measure time in days, weeks, and months. It provides a systematic way to track and organize events, appointments, and important dates. Unlike a clock, which measures time in hours and minutes, a calendar focuses on larger units of time such as days, weeks, and months. A ruler, on the other hand, is a measuring tool used to measure length or distance. Therefore, the correct answer is calendar.
