How to Convert 1201 to Standard Time

1201 converts to 12:01 PM in 3 steps:

  1. 1201 falls between 1200 and 1259, so the hour stays 12.
  2. Insert a colon before the last two digits: 12:01.
  3. Add PM, because the 12 o'clock hour after noon is PM: 12:01 PM.

To go the other way, 12:01 PM becomes 1201: keep 12 for the noon hour, then remove the colon.
