How to convert time from British Time (BT) to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
Converting between British Time (BT)
and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) could be
challenging. As companies become more global, we find ourselves in
a mess of calendar invites. Time changes from BT cities like London, Birmingham, Manchester, Glasgow are -2 hour(s) apart to GMT cities like , holiday schedules, and the basic
communication becomes a juggling act. To make it easier to
understand, we'll break down the process of converting time
between BT and GMT
into step-by-step instructions.
Step 1: Understanding British Time and Greenwich Mean Time
British Time is UTC1, which means that the
local time in the British Time zone is 1
hours apart from UTC. Greenwich Mean Time is UTC0,
which means that the local time in the Greenwich Mean Time zone is 0 hours apart from UTC.
Step 2: Calculate the Time Difference
To convert time from British Time to Greenwich Mean Time, we first need
to find the time difference between both time zones. Since British Time is UTC1 and Greenwich Mean Time is UTC0, the time difference is: -2 hour(s)
-
-2 hours = British Time's difference from UTC 0 + (Greenwich Mean Time's difference from UTC 1
-
Greenwich Mean Time has -2 hour(s) difference British Time.
Understanding British Time and Greenwich Mean Time
British Time is UTC1, which means that the
local time in the British Time zone is 1
hours apart from UTC. Greenwich Mean Time is UTC0,
which means that the local time in the Greenwich Mean Time zone is 0 hours apart from UTC.
Step 4: Practice Converting Times
Now that you know the process, try converting different times
from British Time to Greenwich Mean Time for practice before going to
the answer page. Remember to always add the Greenwich Mean Time time
difference to the British Time time.
