can you tell me how military time works?

Answer 1

Sunday 11:PM. . . . . 2300
Midnight12PM. . . . . 2400 Sunday 0000 Monday
Monday . 1 AM. . . . .0100
. . . . . . . . .2 AM. . . . .0200
. . . . . . . . .3 AM. . . . .0300
etc.
. . . . . . . .11 AM. . . . .1100
Noon. . . 12 AM. . . . .1200
. . . . . . . . . 1 PM. . . . .1300
. . . . . . . . . 2 PM. . . . .1400
etc.
, , , , , , , , ,10 PM. . . . 2200
. . . . . . . . .11 PM. . . . 2300
Midnight . 12 PM. . . .2400 Monday 0000 Tuesday

Minutes are tacked on just like they are in civilian time
9:15 AM is 0915
9:40 PM is 2140

If the military time is over 1300 or more, subtract 1200 and add PM.. so 1520 would be 1520-1200 = 320 PM or 3:20 PM

Saying military time is easy too.
0100 is "zero one hundred hours"
2140 is "twenty-one forty hours"

Answer 2

3 Am In Military Time

Answer 3

It's a 24-hour clock which doesn't distinguish between AM and PM. From Midnight to Twelve Noon the numbering is the same, with two zeros added. So, 2 AM is 0200, 5 AM is 0500 and so one until 12 Noon which is 1200 (pronounced twelve hundred or twelve hundred hours). At 1 PM it become 1300, 1400, etc. until you reach 12 Midnight which is 2400 or 0000 hours. Then it starts all over again.
The U.S. civilian world stands almost alone on the planet in its use of the 12-hour clock which makes a distinction between AM and PM. The rest of the world uses the same system as the U.S. military.

here's a chart i hope it helps
Regular Time Military Time Regular Time Military Time
Midnight 0000 Noon 1200
1:00 a.m. 0100 1 :00 p.m. 1300
2:00 a.m. 0200 2:00 p.m. 1400
3:00 a.m. 0300 3:00 p.m. 1500
4:00 a.m. 0400 4:00 p.m. 1600
5:00 a.m. 0500 5:00 p.m. 1700
6:00 a.m. 0600 6:00 p.m. 1800
7:00 a.m. 0700 7:00 p.m. 1900
8:00 a.m. 0800 8:00 p.m. 2000
9:00 a.m. 0900 9:00 p.m. 2100
10:00 a.m. 1000 10:00 p.m. 2200
11:00 a.m. 1100 11:00 p.m. 2300

Minutes
Regular and military time use the same number of minutes per hour and they use minutes in exactly the same way. Military minutes do not exist and there is is no need to convert minutes when going back and forth between the two time systems.

People occassionally encounter time written in a format that appears to use minutes larger than 59 (for example 7:82 or 7.82). Time written in this manner is being expressed in decimal hours (hours and hundreths of hours), not military time. Converting from decimal hours to hours and minutes is a different issue than converting between regular and military time

Answer 5

Any number after 12 O'Clock is represented differently
1:00 PM is 1300
2 PM is 1400
3 PM is 1500
After it gets to 2400 hours, the numbers reset to normal times.

Answer 6

You have plenty of correct answers. One thing in the military that comes up is "Zulu time". A reference to GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). If something begins at 0030 Zulu it means when it is that time in Greenwich England, not where you are. Greenwich is in Time Zone "Z" which is "Zulu" in mil speak.

Answer 7

If your time is AM that it's normal time,

If PM, say 1pm, just add 12. So 1pm +12= 1300.

Answer 8

Its 24 hr time, based on a 24 hour continuum, not am or pm eg, 9.00am is 0900 hours, 11.00am is 1100 hours, 4.00pm is 1600hours and 11.00pm is 2300 hours. Cheers !

Answer 9

what ever normal time you have just add 12 to it and there ya go you have military time.

Answer 10

you begin at midnight, "00:00" And start counting the next hour would be 1am "01:00" pronounced 0 one hundred hours and keep counting untill you get to 24 hundred hours, and then it starts all over again.
