directions: convert the following time to traditional time.
2359

Explanation:

Identify the input time format

The given time is 2359, which is in 24-hour (military) format.

Convert hours to 12-hour format

Since the hour value 23 is greater than 12, subtract 12 to find the 12-hour equivalent:

$$ 23 - 12 = 11 $$

Because the original hour is 12 or greater, the time is in the PM period.

Combine hours and minutes

Keep the minutes as 59 and append PM:

$$ 11:59\text{ PM} $$
