Which military time corresponds to 1:00 PM?

Military time uses a 24-hour clock system where hours are numbered from 00 to 23. In this system, 1:00 PM is represented as 1300 hours. The reasoning behind this is that the hours from 1:00 AM to 12:00 PM are counted as 0100 to 1200, and from 1:00 PM onwards, the hours continue from 1300 to 2400.

At 1:00 PM, one hour has passed since noon (12:00 PM), thus adding one hour to 12 gives us 13, resulting in 1300 hours. This system helps to avoid confusion between AM and PM times, making it particularly useful in military and other time-sensitive environments.
