D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -How many hours is it from 6:30am to 4:30pm? 16:30 am minus 6:30 am = 10:00 which means the time period from 6:30 am to 4:30 pm is ten (10) hours.

Detailed explanation-2: -7 30 am to 4 30 pm is 9 hours-calculate time between any two hours while you type.

Detailed explanation-3: -The result will be 8 hours 30 minutes (8:30 hours or 8.5 hours in decimal) or 510 minutes. There are 8 full hours between these times. It also supports the subtraction of lunch breaks and other types of pauses from the total hours in between.

Detailed explanation-4: -First, identify the starting and an ending time. The goal is to subtract the starting time from the ending time under the correct conditions. If the times are not already in 24-hour time, convert them to 24-hour time. AM hours are the same in both 12-hour and 24-hour time.
