Open in App
Solution

Find 12 O'clock in the afternoon AM or PM

The abbreviation AM stands for ante meridiem (before the meridian line has crossed the Sun or the time between midnight and 11:59 in the morning).

PM stands for post-meridiem (after the meridian line has crossed the Sun or the time between noon and 11:59 at night).

12 O’clock in the afternoon is PM because the PM represents the time between noon and 11:59 at night.

Hence, 12 PM is used to address 12 O'clock in the afternoon.
