What is the correct military time for 10:00 PM?

The correct military time for 10:00 PM is represented as 2200. In military time, the 24-hour clock system is used, where the hours from midnight until noon are presented from 0000 to 1159 and the hours from noon to midnight are presented from 1200 to 2359.

At 10:00 PM, you are referring to the 22nd hour of the day, thus it is represented as 2200. This system eliminates confusion between AM and PM times, making it especially useful in military operations or any situation where precision in time notation is required.

In contrast, 2100 indicates 9:00 PM, 2300 represents 11:00 PM, and 2400 marks midnight transitioning into the new day.
