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

Answer

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

= 690 Minutes · 11.5 decimal hours

6:00 PM → 5:30 AM next day · by the clock, breaks not subtracted

With a 30-min unpaid break: 11 h 30 min − 30 min = 11 h paid

day 1
next day
6:00 PM — start 5:30 AM — end, next day
(24:00 − 6:00 PM) + 5:30 AM = 6 h + 5 h 30 min = 11 h 30 min = 11.5 h
