Today’s printable math work sheet generator will center around the concept of time.
We’ll have two types of questions – one will ask the student to draw in the hands on a blank clock face for a random time. The other type of question will be a word problem that provides a start time and a time increment and asks the student to calculate the finish time. We would have loved to generate a random clock face time and ask what time it is but that turns out to be incredibly difficult in a spreadsheet.
To create the random times, we use the formula =RANDBETWEEN(1,12) for the hours, and then =RANDBETWEEN(0,59) for the minutes, then use the formula =TIME(hours, minutes, 0 seconds) for the time to display. We also added in some logic to allow for the times to round to 5’s if the user puts in a “y” in cell E2.

Here’s how the final product looks:
