That happens in clock arithmetic.
On a 12 hour clock, 3 hours past 11 is 2.

On a clock? 11 plus 3 hours = 2

in a mod 12 system. In other words if the only numbers that exist are 0 thru 11. adding 3 to 11 would bring the number back to 2

In this way:
11 am + 3 hours = 2 pm

it is probably in mod 12, which means you have only 0, 1, 2, ...,11
you have the remeinder when you divide a number by 12
so the number 12 will be 0, 13 will be 1, and 14 will be 2
11+3 is 2 in mod 12

If you are talking in terms of modular arithmetic, where 14 and 2 are congruent (modulo 12). Think of a clock, same idea.
