Question

Match the following am-pm system time with 24-hour format time.

• A. $00:00$
• B. $06:00$
• C. $17:00$
• D. $12:00$

Answer 1

Times before midday are numerically same in all the formats.
$\therefore$ $6\text{A.M.}=6:00$


Times after midday are numerically differs by $12$ in A.M.-P.M. and $24$ - hours formates.

$\text{Time (24-hour formate)}=(12:00+\text{time after midday})$

$\therefore$ $5$ P.M. = $12:00+05:00=17:00$


$12$ A.M. is the start of the new day, hence in $24$ - hour it will be $00:00$.


$12$ P.M is exactly midday, it will be numerically same in $24$-hour format and it will be $12:00$
