Question

Amy checks the time in the 24-hour format as 12:00 hours. What will be the time in the 12- hour format?

• A. 12:00 noon
• B. 12:00 midnight
• C. 00:00 hours
• D. 12:00 a.m.

Answer 1

The correct option is A 12:00 noon

Let us convert the time to the 12-hour format.

• $\text{Hours}$ in the 24-hour format $\text{changes}$ depending upon whether the time is in $\text{a.m. or p.m.}$
• If the time is later than 12:00 p.m., the time is added to 12 hours.
• The time is 12:00 hours.
• 12:00 hours is given as 12:00 noon or 12:00 p.m.

Hence, the correct answer is option B.
