How to Convert 1400 to Standard Time

converting 1400 from military time to standard time infographic

1400 military time converts to 2:00 PM in the 12-hour format. Since this hour falls in the afternoon, the conversion follows the standard military time rule for PM hours.

Conversion Rules:

Take the first two digits of time as hours (14) and subtract by 12. 14-12 = 2
Take the last two digits of time as minutes (00).
Add a colon between hours and minutes (2:00).
Now as military time was above 12 we add PM to it (2:00 PM)

Examples:

1409 becomes 2:09 PM
1431 becomes 2:31 PM
1452 becomes 2:52 PM

Remember: If the hour is greater than 12, just subtract 12 to get the PM time. For afternoon hour conversions, visit our military time converter page.
