World Time

LI: apply inquiry, literacy and numeracy skills to learn about the RWC.
My maths learning for today was to fill this table by coverting the 6pm time in Japan to the times in the differents countries shown in the table for the final of the Rugby World Cup.

What is the 24hr clock?
Acording to Simple Wikipedia( my source) a 24-hour clock is a way of telling the time in which the day runs from midnight to midnight and is divided into 24 hours, numbered from 0 to 24. It does not use a.m. or p.m. ... A time in the 24-hour clock is written in the form hours:minutes (for example, 01:23), or hours:minutes:seconds (01:23:45).

Time changes if you go to one hemisphere to another hemisphere and when you cross over the equator.

AM and PM
AM is a short version for Ante Meridiem and it is before midday. PM is a short version of Post Meridiem and it is after midday
