How many hours between 11:00 PM and 7:00 AM?

Answer: 8 hours

We convert both times into minutes from the start of the day, subtract, and if the result is negative we treat the end time as the next day (midnight crossing).

Readable form: 11:00 PM → 7:00 AM = 8 hours
End time is treated as the next day because it is earlier than the start time.

Detailed Math (Step-by-Step)

Full minute-based operation shown clearly.

Step 1: Convert both times to minutes

Start time 11:00 PM
Start in minutes 1380 minutes from 00:00
End time 7:00 AM
End in minutes 420 minutes from 00:00
Minute formula: difference_minutes = end_minutes − start_minutes

Step 2: Subtract (and handle midnight crossing)

Raw subtraction 420 − 1380 = -960
Midnight crossing Add 1440 minutes (24×60): -960 + 1440 = 480
Difference (minutes) 480 minutes
Convert to hours 480 ÷ 60 = 8 hours
Readable form: 8 hours
