How do you tell time on a clock?
The longer hand is the minute hand and the shorter hand is the hour hand. Whatever the shorter hand is on, that is the hour. Whatever number the long hand is on, multiply that by 5, ( ex. long hand is on 6, multiply 30) and that is the minutes. If the longer hand is in between two numbers (like 5 and 6) you take the smallest number it is between (5) and count the number of little lines there are until you get to the line the longer hand is on. Ex. the longer hand is on 4 and shorter hand is on 7. The time would be 7:20. I hope that explains it.And by the way your stupid . And dumb. I am sorry but i could not stand but tell the truth.

What is the big hand on the clock called?
The long hand is called the minute hand, the shorter fat one is called the hour hand. Based on historical design the BIG hand is the hour hand because an hour is bigger than a minute. Function first, then form. Traditionally clocks had fatter hands for hour and thinner hands for minute, thus BIG is hour and LITTLE is minute. Yes the minute hand is usually longer than the hour hand but on most clocks the hour hand is larger not just shorter. Don't confuse long, big, little, and short.
