Understanding minutes and hours
Minutes and hours are standard units used to measure time. One hour is defined as exactly 60 minutes. This relationship makes it easy to convert between minutes and decimal hours for everyday tasks like tracking work time, planning travel, or timing workouts.
To convert minutes to hours, divide the number of minutes by 60. For example, 75 minutes ÷ 60 = 1.25 hours. To go the other way, from hours back to minutes, multiply by 60. For example, 2.5 hours × 60 = 150 minutes.
