Convert 8:44 P.M. to military time. (Enter the numerical value only.)
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Correct Answer: D (2040)
Rationale:
1. Military time follows a 24-hour clock.
2. To convert 8:44 P.M. to military time, add 12 hours to the given time.
3. 8 + 12 = 20, so the hour becomes 20.
4. The minute remains the same, so it is 44.
5. Therefore, 8:44 P.M. in military time is 2044.
Summary:
A: 2044 - Incorrect, same as the correct answer but not in the 24-hour clock format.
B: 2204 - Incorrect, it would be the military time for 10:04 P.M.
C: 1844 - Incorrect, it is the original time in the 12-hour clock format, not converted to military time.
