How many hours between 8:30pm and 5am?

Answer

The difference between 8:30pm and 5am is
8 Hours 30 Minutes

= 510 Minutes · 8.5 decimal hours

8:30 PM → 5:00 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: 8 h 30 min − 30 min = 8 h paid

day 1
next day
8:30 PM — start 5:00 AM — end, next day
(24:00 − 8:30 PM) + 5:00 AM = 3 h 30 min + 5 h = 8 h 30 min = 8.5 h
