Is it quarter of 12 or quarter to 12?

Answer:
  • A Quarter of 12 is 12 * (1/4) = 3. This is not generally used when you speak about time.
  • Whereas, Quarter to 12 is used frequently and means that 15 minutes are left for the clock to strike 12 am/pm.
  • So, quarter to 12 is correct and is used.
