Add the difference in UTC offsets between the source and target timezones. Positive offset means later time, negative means earlier. Handle day changes when crossing midnight.

Worked Examples

Example 1: US to Europe Call

Problem:Schedule a call at 9 AM New York time (EST). What time is it in London (GMT) and Paris (CET)?

Solution:New York (EST): 9:00 AM = UTC-5\n\nLondon (GMT): UTC+0\nOffset: 0 - (-5) = +5 hours\n9:00 AM + 5 hours = 2:00 PM GMT\n\nParis (CET): UTC+1\nOffset: 1 - (-5) = +6 hours\n9:00 AM + 6 hours = 3:00 PM CET

Result:London: 2:00 PM | Paris: 3:00 PM

Example 2: Asia to US Conversion

Problem:A flight departs Tokyo at 10:00 PM JST and takes 11 hours. What time does it arrive in Los Angeles (PST)?

Solution:Tokyo (JST): 10:00 PM = UTC+9\nLos Angeles (PST): UTC-8\n\nOffset difference: -8 - (+9) = -17 hours\n\nDeparture in LA time:\n10:00 PM - 17 hours = 5:00 AM (same day)\n\nAfter 11-hour flight:\n5:00 AM + 11 hours = 4:00 PM PST

Result:Arrives 4:00 PM PST (same calendar day)

Example 3: India Office Hours

Problem:Find overlapping business hours between New York (EST, 9 AM-5 PM) and Mumbai (IST, 9 AM-6 PM).

Solution:Mumbai IST = UTC+5:30\nNew York EST = UTC-5\nDifference: 10.5 hours\n\nMumbai 9 AM = New York 10:30 PM (previous day)\nNew York 9 AM = Mumbai 7:30 PM\n\nMumbai business hours in EST:\n9 AM IST = 10:30 PM EST (prev day)\n6 PM IST = 7:30 AM EST\n\nOverlap: None with standard hours

Result:No natural overlap - one side needs early/late hours
