If military time indicates 1800 hours, at what standard time should the patient receive his medication?
9 a.m.
12 p.m.
3 p.m.
6 p.m.
6 p.m.
Rationale: Since military time begins at midnight, signified by 0000 hours, each hour of the day increases up until noon, which is 12:00 p.m. in standard time. This means that 1800 hours = 12:00 p.m. + 6 hours, or 6 p.m.
