Which analog clock shows the same time as this digital one?

We’re shown a digital clock with the time 4:45. We have to select the analog clock, which shows the time 4:45. 4:45 is between 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock. Quarter past four is 4:15, 4:30 is half past four, and 4:45 is quarter to five. In another 15 minutes, it will be 5 o’clock. Which of our clocks shows 45 minutes past four or quarter to five. Both of these two clocks show a quarter to time. The minute hand is pointing to number nine, which means there are 15 minutes until the next hour or quarter of an hour until the next hour. But the hour hand on the first clock is between the hours five and six.

We already know that 4:45 is between the hours four and five. The hour hand on this clock is between 4 and 5 o’clock. This is the analog clock which shows 4:45 or quarter to five. We used a number line to help and picked the analog clock, which shows the same time as the digital one.
