• The minute hand points at the 3, and every number on a clock face is worth five minutes — so it shows 15 minutes past six.
• The hour hand is between the 6 and the 7, which tells you the hour has started but not finished.
• Up to half past we count minutes forward from the hour, so 6:15 is read as "quarter past six".
• 6:15 can be said either way: "quarter past six" or simply "six fifteen".
