How to Convert 2045

2045 falls after noon on the 24-hour clock, so the rule is: subtract 12 from the hour and add PM.

20 − 12 = 8 → 8:45 PM (the minutes, 45, stay exactly the same).

Going the other way: 8:45 PM + 12 = 2045. Or skip the math — type 2045 into the military time converter and convert any time instantly on the home page.
