How to convert time from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST)
Converting between Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
and Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) could be
challenging. As companies become more global, we find ourselves in
a mess of calendar invites. Time changes from GMT cities like are 12 hour(s) apart to AEST cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, 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 GMT and AEST
into step-by-step instructions.
Step 1: Understanding Greenwich Mean Time and Australian Eastern Standard Time
Greenwich Mean Time is UTC0, which means that the
local time in the Greenwich Mean Time zone is 0
hours apart from UTC. Australian Eastern Standard Time is UTC11,
which means that the local time in the Australian Eastern Standard Time zone is 11 hours apart from UTC.
Step 2: Calculate the Time Difference
To convert time from Greenwich Mean Time to Australian Eastern Standard Time, we first need
to find the time difference between both time zones. Since Greenwich Mean Time is UTC0 and Australian Eastern Standard Time is UTC11, the time difference is: 12 hour(s)
-
12 hours = Greenwich Mean Time's difference from UTC 11 + (Australian Eastern Standard Time's difference from UTC 0
-
Australian Eastern Standard Time has 12 hour(s) difference Greenwich Mean Time.
Understanding Greenwich Mean Time and Australian Eastern Standard Time
Greenwich Mean Time is UTC0, which means that the
local time in the Greenwich Mean Time zone is 0
hours apart from UTC. Australian Eastern Standard Time is UTC11,
which means that the local time in the Australian Eastern Standard Time zone is 11 hours apart from UTC.
Step 4: Practice Converting Times
Now that you know the process, try converting different times
from Greenwich Mean Time to Australian Eastern Standard Time for practice before going to
the answer page. Remember to always add the Australian Eastern Standard Time time
difference to the Greenwich Mean Time time.
