Answer 2

Given,

1) 5.40 pm

2) 1.20 pm

To find,

Convert the given time into the 24-hour clock

Solution,

We can solve this problem by the following steps-

Both the given times are written in 12 hours clock.

To convert 12 hour clock time into 24 hour clock time add 12 with that of the given time.

i.e.,

Given that

1)  Given time in 12 hour clock               = 5. 40  pm

    Convert given time in 24 hour clock= Given time + 12

                                                                = 5.40+12

                                                                = 17.40

2) Given time in 12 hour clock               = 1.20 pm

   Convert given time in 24 hour clock = Given time+ 12

                                                                = 1.20+12

                                                                = 13.20

(Note: The values A.M(ante-meridiem) and P.M(post meridiem) are not needed to be written in 24 hour clock)

Thus, 1) 40 minutes past 5 in the evening is equal to 17.40 as per 24 hour clock.

         2) 20 minutes past 1 in the afternoon is equal to 13.20 as per 24 hour clock.
