Explanation of 4:42 PM to 16:42 conversion

To convert 12-hour time 4:42 PM to 24-hour time format (also known as Military Time) we need to do a few simple steps:

  • If our 12-hour time is PM (after midday) and the number of hours is not equal to 12, we will add 12 to it.
  • If our time is AM (before midday) and the number of hours is equal to 12, then it will be 0 hours in 24-hour (Military) time format.
  • In any other case we just leave the number of hours untouched.
  • And finally we remove AM/PM postfix. Yes, it's that simple.
(when converting 12-hour time to 24-hour Military Time, minutes remain unchanged)

In our case (4:42 PM) the number of hours is not equal to 0, and it's PM so we add 12 to it:

4 + 12 = 16

After we got the number of hours (16) we just need to remove AM/PM postfix. Finally, we get:
