銀行は五時に閉まります

Why can't I put o clock if they have 時

Would "the banks close an hour before anyone gets off work, always" be a valid translation

Shouldn't "The bank closes/is closing at 5" also work?

Comment not about the exercise in particular.. In Japan, banks close at 3 pm >_<

"The bank will close at 5."

i'm assuming this was wrong because I used future tense instead of present. how would I write my sentence vs what they wanted?

If only.

I put the bank will close at 5 and it said nope.

...aaaand I instinctively put PM after the "5". (._. )

Shouldn't it be: "The banks are closed at 5."

I put: Banks close at 5 o'clock. And it says Wrong answer!

The bank is closed at 5 was not accepted.

"The banks closed at five" should be acceptable.

"The banks closed at 5 o'clock" should be acceptable.
