To convert from CDT (Central Daylight Time) to EST+7 (Eastern Standard Time + 7 hours), you need to account for the time difference between these two time zones.

  1. CDT to EST: CDT is 1 hour behind EST. So, if it’s 12:00 PM CDT, it would be 1:00 PM EST.
  2. EST to EST+7: EST+7 is 7 hours ahead of EST. So, if it’s 1:00 PM EST, it would be 8:00 PM EST+7.

Putting it all together:

  • If it’s 12:00 PM CDT, it would be 1:00 PM EST.
  • Then, 1:00 PM EST would be 8:00 PM EST+7.

So, to convert any time from CDT to EST+7, you add 8 hours.

For example:

  • 3:00 PM CDT would be 11:00 PM EST+7.
  • 6:00 AM CDT would be 2:00 PM EST+7.
