Arrange the steps to convert a UTC+2 local time of 1600 to UTC.
Answer
Identify the offset as two hours ahead of UTC, Subtract two hours from local time, Record the result as 1400 UTC
Explanation
First interpret the offset: UTC+2 means local time is ahead. Subtract two hours from 1600, giving 1400, and label the result UTC. **Key takeaway:** Convert by applying the offset in the opposite direction. **Glossary:** **Local time**: Time used in a civil time zone; **UTC**: The shared aviation reference time.
