How to read 2013
2013 is after noon, so subtract 12 from the hours: 20 − 12 = 8. Keep the minutes (13) and add PM: 8:13 PM. Do not subtract 10: 2013 is not 10:13 PM.
For hours 20 to 23, add 8 to the second digit: 20 gives 0 + 8 = 8, PM.
2013 falls in the evening: 20 hours and 13 minutes after midnight, 84.2% of the way through the day, with 3 hours and 47 minutes left until the next midnight.
How to say it
Pilots and air traffic controllers say each digit: “two zero one three”. Off the radio, people usually read 2013 as two numbers.
