What is the time corresponding to 1 p.m. in the 24 hour clock?a)10:00 ...
Explanation:
1 p.m. is equivalent to 1 hour past noon, in the 12-hour clock system. In the 24-hour clock system, each hour is represented by a number from 0 to 23, with 0 representing midnight and 23 representing 11 p.m. Therefore, to convert 1 p.m. to the 24-hour clock system, we simply add 12 to the number.
Conversion Steps:
1. Start with the given time in the 12-hour clock system: 1 p.m.
2. Add 12 to the number to convert it to the 24-hour clock system: 1 + 12 = 13.
3. The equivalent time in the 24-hour clock system is 13:00 hours.
Answer:
Therefore, the correct answer is option D, which represents 13:00 hours in the 24-hour clock system.
