Top 5 mistakes
Ranked by how often they appear across 24 MOE-aligned practice questions in our archive.
Read the number on the clock (3) as the number of minutes directly. Each number stands for 5 minutes, so 3 means 3 × 5 = 15 minutes.
Counted only 2 jumps of 5 (10) instead of 3. The minute hand at 3 means 3 × 5 = 15.
Counted to the wrong number — 20 minutes would be at the '4' on the clock, not the '3'. 3 × 5 = 15.
Counted from 2:45 to 4:00 only (1 hour 15 minutes) and forgot to add the remaining 10 minutes from 4:00 to 4:10.
