How to Add Hours to the Current Time
To calculate the time X hours from now, add the hours to the current time. If the total exceeds 12 (for 12-hour clocks) or 24, the time wraps around and the date advances.
Future Time = Current Time + Hours
Example: If it's 3:30 PM and you add 8 hours → 11:30 PM (same day). If you add 10 hours → 1:30 AM (next day).
