Basically, people tell time with pretty much the same way in the US as it is in Britain. If you are having high tea in London and someone asked you what time it was, you may either say: "quarter past 3 " or simply "it's 3:15". We could say: "half past 3" or "3:30" If you are listening traffice report on the radio, the news anchor ma say: "it's half past the hour".
