The twenty four hour clock works in a different way. When we use the twelve hour clock, we split the day up into two lots of twelve. There are two times each day when it is half past two, five past three and so on. We use am or pm to show which one is which.

The twenty four hour clock splits the day into 24 hours. The day starts at midnight which is written as 00: 00. Five past twelve (midnight) is written as 00: 05 One o’clock in the morning is 01: 00, so five past one is 01: 05
