How do you say 1530 in military time

Have you ever been confused by military time? In the United States, a 24-hour clock is frequently used in the form of military time. This type of clock is more commonly referred to as "24-hour clock" and differs from the regular 12-hour clock we use in our everyday life. In military time, each hour has a unique two-digit representation with military abbreviations after the hour to indicate minutes.

So how do you say 1530 in military time? 1530 in military time is equivalent to 3:30 p.m. Generally, any time between midnight and noon will use the first two digits of the four for hours and remain unchanged when converted from 12-hour to 24-hour format. For example, 8:00 a.m. in 12-hour format would be 08:00 in 24-hour format also known as 0800 in military time. Conversely, any time from noon to midnight will use the first two digits of "13" (1300) and add regular 12-hour hours accordingly. For example, 4:45 p.m., which is 1645 on a regular clock in 12-hour format would be 1645 in 24-hours format or 1645 in military time.

Therefore, using this logic, 1530 in 12-hour format would be 1530 in 24 formats or said another way - 1530 in military time -adheres to this rule as well since it is after noon but before midnight so we use 13 instead of 01 for hours then add three regular 12-hours so 3 plus 13 = 16 thus 1630 equates to 3:30 p.m..
