Spelling out time in English

[George Mitrevski]

Recently I received the following request:

"Could you please tell whether hyphens should be used to spell out times
of day?  For instance, is 4:30 written as four-thirty or four thirty?
And is 4:35 written as four-thirty-five or four thirty-five?  Four
fifteen or four-fifteen?  This has been bugging me for  years, and
through my writing five completed novels."

Being a foreigner myself, I have absolutely no clue. Any suggestions?

George.
