How many hours between 5:30pm and 12:30am?

Answer

The difference between 5:30pm and 12:30am is
7 Hours

= 420 Minutes · 7 decimal hours

5:30 PM → 12:30 AM next day · by the clock, breaks not subtracted

The end is earlier than the start, so it falls on the next day (+24 h). On a night the clocks change, the real span differs by the size of the change.

12 AM is midnight (00:00), 12 PM is noon (12:00).

With a 30-min unpaid break: 7 h − 30 min = 6 h 30 min paid

day 1
next day
5:30 PM — start 12:30 AM — end, next day
(24:00 − 5:30 PM) + 12:30 AM = 6 h 30 min + 30 min = 7 hours
