You can count 8 AM to 8 PM by hand in four steps.

  1. Write both times on the 24-hour clock: 8 AM is 8:00 and 8 PM is 20:00.
  2. Subtract the start from the end: 20:00 − 8:00 = 12 hours.
  3. Take off the unpaid lunch. A 30-minute lunch leaves 11 hours 30 minutes, and a 60-minute lunch leaves 11 hours.
  4. Turn the minutes into a decimal by dividing them by 60: 11 hours 30 minutes is 11 + 30 ÷ 60 = 11.5 hours.
Of the 12 hours, 4 hours come before noon and 8 hours after it.
