How many hours between 5:30pm and 6am?

Answer

The difference between 5:30pm and 6am is
12 Hours 30 Minutes

= 750 Minutes · 12.5 decimal hours

5:30 PM → 6:00 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.

With a 30-min unpaid break: 12 h 30 min − 30 min = 12 h paid

day 1
next day
5:30 PM — start 6:00 AM — end, next day
(24:00 − 5:30 PM) + 6:00 AM = 6 h 30 min + 6 h = 12 h 30 min = 12.5 h
