Question

1713 hours is the same as which of the following times?

A. 5:13 P.M.
B. 7:13 P.M.
C. 7:13 A.M
D. 5: 13 A.M.

Answer 1

A. 5:13 P.M.

Explanation:

Any time between 0000 to 1200 hours falls within the A.M range.

1200 hours corresponds to 0 P.M.

Any time after 1200 hours is P.M.

Hence, 1700 hours corresponds to (17-12) P.M.

This implies that 1700 hours corresponds to 5 P.M.

1713 hours corresponds to 5 P.M and (1713-1700) minutes

In other words, 1713 hours corresponds to 5:13 P.M.

Among the given options, option A is the correct one.
