Sure. If the number is under 13, then it's the actual time.
If it's 13:00 or above, just subtract 12 from it and you have the time in pm.
So 22:00 would be 10:00pm

you just subtract 12 to the military time like 22:00 - 12:00 is 10 pm

13:00-23:00 are pm

From
1:00 A.M to 12:00 P.M use 0100 through 1200 Hours
From
1:00 P.M. to 12:00 Midnight use 1300 through 2400 Hours

For minutes in between, use the same as in any clock 00 through 59

Example 12:35 P.M. = 1235 Hours
Example 12:35 A.M. = 0035 Hours (after Midnight (2400 hours)the Clock starts at 0001 Hours)
Example 02:20 P.M. = 1420 Hours
Example 02:20 A.M. = 0220 Hours
Example 02:59 P.M = 1459 Hours

Hope this helps

after 12 subtract 12

Right on

Yes, it's not hard to tell military time............... start at noon 12:00 then 1pm would be 13:00, 2pm would be14:00.... and so on until you get to midnight 24:00.....you asked what is 22:00.... it's 10pm.

There is no Am or Pm

Have fun learning the new time.

1 am is 1:00 1 pm is 1300....if the time is pm you add 12 hours to it... 2200 is 10 pm The guy that says you subtract it is a moron, because you cant subtract 12 from numbers under 12

jean

this is how it work you have 24hours a day 1:00 am wich is 0100 to 2400 at midnight.from 1 am to 12 pm then 1300.

Military time is easy, instead of using 1 to 12 am and 1 to 12 pm it uses all 24 hours...so 1:00 pm is 13:00 and 2:00 is 14:00...just add 12 to figure out the pm (am is the same).

socjfk

1300 = 1pm
1400 = 2pm
1500 = 3pm
1600 = 4pm
1700 = 5pm
1800 = 6pm
1900 = 7pm
2000 = 8pm
2100 = 9pm
2200 = 10pm
2300 = 11pm
0000 = 12 midnight

dementors_suck

22:00 is 10:00pm

There are 24 hours in a day. Start at midnight & go forward. 01:00 would be 1:00am, 02:00 would be 2:00am, etc.

thomasrobinsonantonio

Simplicity itself. 0001 is one minute past midnight. Up to noon forget the first zero and you have the time. After noon it becomes 1300. Subtract 1200 and you have the time. This goes right up to 2359, subtract 1200 and you have 11.59pm, one minute to midnight.

no sorry

pkingman1274

if time is before or at 12:00 that's what time it is (i.e btw 0:00 and 12:00) if it's 13:00 or after, subtract twelve and you will get the proper time, 13:00 -12:00= 1:00 get it

Ralfcoder

Military time starts counting at 12 midnight. 0100 is 1 AM, 0200 is 2 AM, 1200 hours is noon, 1300 hours is 1 PM, 2230 hours is 10:30 PM. If the first 2 digits are greater than 12, subtract 12 from the number, and you'll have the standard time. So:

1020 hours is 10:20 am
1445 hours is 2:45 in the afternoon
2359 hours is 1 minute before midnight.

in england we use the 24 hour clock and i just subtract 12 from it...then you get your time.

panda

state at one and keep it in number order like,1,2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10.11.12.-13,14, etc.etc.etc...

anniel

We all know there are 24 hours in a day. The military (and most computers) don't recognize AM and PM. Thus 12:00 in military time is noon, 1:00 PM for the rest of us is 13:00 hours. All hours before noon are what the clock says: after noon you have to add the number on the clock to twelve to convert to military time or subtract twelve from a military clock to convert back to common AM and PM standards.

Alissa

I subtract 12. so 22 would be 10

jeffkuehn15057

It;s not that hard.
00:00 in 12:00 am
12:00 is noon
now just add 10 to the hour.

Are you being serious? Most people recognise it as 10pm!

New York Mama

I used to work on a military base and I know this can be confusing. If I remember correctly 12:00 noon would be 1200 hours so at 1:00 in the afternoon it is 1300 hours and so on and so on. 2200 hours would be 10:00 p.m.

caleb b

you subtract 12 hours from it and you will get the time

sarge927

As everyone else has mentioned, if the number on the left side is above 13, all you have to do is subtract 12 and you'll get the p.m. time. The military uses the "hundred hour system" so people don't get confused between a.m. and p.m. Imagine if you were planning a coordinated attack with planes and ground troops and told everyone "We strike at 6:00," but the troops advance at 6:00 a.m. and the planes don't arrive until 6:00 p.m. OOPS!!!

fairy_tale_dreams

22:00 is 10 o'clock... when looking at your watch or clock on the wall that isn't digital..then once it hits 12 just add on up example. .. 1pm =13:00 2pm=14:00, 3pm=15:00 until you hit 12pm it's 24:00 then start all over except now it's 1am instead of 13:00

that's that best way to learn military time and it's easy
