In a 24-hour format, time is represented with unique hours of the day that do not require the AM and PM indicators. To convert from 24-hour time to 12-hour time (or vice versa), use the following table:
| 24-hour time | 12-hour time |
|---|---|
| 00:00 (midnight) | 12:00 AM |
| 01:00 | 1:00 AM |
| 02:00 | 2:00 AM |
| ... | ... AM |
| 10:00 | 10:00 AM |
| 11:00 | 11:00 AM |
| 12:00 (midday) | 12:00 PM |
| 13:00 | 1:00 PM |
| 14:00 | 2:00 PM |
| ... | ... PM |
| 22:00 | 10:00 PM |
| 23:00 | 11:00 PM |
The minutes remain the same between the two formats.
Alternately, you can use the following math to convert from AM/PM to 24-hour format:
- For AM times, use the time directly: 8:45 AM = 8:45 (in 24-hour format)
- For PM times, add 12 hours to the time: 8:45 PM = 20:45 (in 24-hour format)
