Question

Time denoted as quarter past one is ??​

Answer 1

Answer:

Quarter past means that 15 minutes have passed since the last hour. There are 60 minutes in a whole hour and so, one-quarter of an hour is 15 minutes. For example, if the time is 'quarter past one', then the time is 1:15 or 15 minutes past one.

Answer 2

Or when it's 1:15, we say it's “quarter after one”. At minute 45, we say it's “quarter to” the next hour.
