Answer 1

Answer: (B), (D)

subtracted

For time $\underset{–}{\text{greater than or equal to}13:00}$ in 24-hour format, $12$ hours should be $\underset{–}{\text{subtracted}}$ to get time in P.M. format.
For example:

Time ($24$-hour format)	Time (A.M.-P.M. format)
$13:40$ hours	$1:40$ P.M.
$20:25$ hours	$8:25$ P.M.

Time, from 12:00 hours to 12:59 hours, is converted into P.M. without change in its digits.

$12:45$ hours

$12:45$ P.M.
