How do you convert 12 hour time to 24 hour time?

  • Converting time is like changing how you wear your watch!
  • In 12 hour time, we use AM and PM. AM is for morning and PM is for night.
  • In 24 hour time, we do not use AM or PM. We just count the hours from 0 to 23.
Examples:
  • 2:00 PM:
    • 2 PM is when the sun is bright in the afternoon.
    • In 24 hour time, this becomes 14:00.

  • 7:00 AM:
    • 7 AM is when most people are waking up.
    • In 24 hour time, this stays the same and is 07:00.

  • 11:30 PM:
    • 11:30 PM is late at night, almost bedtime!
    • In 24 hour time, this is 23:30.
