Worked Solution

Step 1: Read the 24-hour time: 1435 means 14 hours and 35 minutes. Step 2: Since 14 ≥ 13, this is an afternoon time (p.m.). Step 3: Subtract 12 from the hours: 14 − 12 = 2. Step 4: Keep the minutes the same: 35 minutes. Answer: 1435 in 24-hour time = 2:35 p.m.

Correct answer: 2:35 p.m.
