How do you convert military 2152 hours to 12 clock?
It is 9:52 PM. Here's how:
For military time, the left two digits are the hour, and the right two digits are the minutes. It is based on a 24 hour clock, so hour 0000 represents midnight and anything 0001 - 0059 is 12:01 AM to 12:59 AM. The hours 01 through 11 will convert to the same time (AM). At 1200 is noon, so 1201 - 1259 is 12:01 PM - 12:59 PM. After that, you must subtract 12 from the hour number, to get the hour on a 12 hour clock (and it will be PM). So 1 hour after noon is 1:00 PM, but the equivalent military time is 1300.
So 21 is greater than 12, so subtract 12: 21 - 12 = 9. Since it's greater than 12, it's PM. The minutes are still the same, so 9:52 PM.
