Convertidor de Zonas Horarias — Fórmula
## How Time Zone Conversion Works
Each time zone is defined as an offset from UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). To convert, calculate the difference in offsets and add it to the source time.
### Formula
**Target Time = Source Time + (Target UTC Offset - Source UTC Offset)**
If the result is negative, add 24 (previous day). If over 23, subtract 24 (next day).

Ejemplo Resuelto
It is 14:00 (2 PM) in UTC-5 (New York). What time is it in UTC+1 (Paris)?
- Offset difference = 1 - (-5) = 6 hours
- Target time = 14 + 6 = 20:00 (8 PM)
- Paris is 6 hours ahead of New York
