Help

Each round has two clock faces, two questions about lengths of time and two calendar questions. On a clock the short hand gives the hour and the long hand the minutes, and each number is five minutes. For a length of time, count up to the next whole hour first, then add the rest. On a calendar, each column is one day of the week. Every answer is worked out from the time or date shown, so each question has exactly one right answer.

Each round has six questions and no time limit. Choosing an answer locks it. Review the steps, then move to the next question. Finish all six to save the round. Active time includes reviewing the steps, but does not count time when this page is hidden. Speed does not affect your score.

Use Tab and Enter or Space to choose an answer. The number keys also select answers, except when another control is focused. After an answer, Enter goes to the next question.
