To determine the correct time based on the given information: 1. The clock shows **3:45** but is **15 minutes slow**, so the actual time is **4:00** (3:45 + 15 minutes). 2. The additional clue states that the actual time is **a quarter past an hour**, which confirms **4:15** (since a quarter past 4:00 is 4:15). However, combining both pieces logically: - If the clock is slow by 15 minutes and shows 3:45, the actual time is **4:00**. - "A quarter past an hour" typically means 15 minutes past the hour (e.g., 4:15), but this contradicts the first calculation. Given the inconsistency, the most precise answer based on the clock being slow is **4:00**. But since the question specifies "a quarter past an hour," the intended answer is likely **4:15**. **Final Answer:** 04:15
