Solved Examples on Conversion of Hours into Minutes:

Let us take few examples to understand the conversion of minutes and hours.

1. How many minutes are there in 3 hours?

Solution:

Now, 1 hour = 60 minutes

So, 6 hours = 3 × 60 minutes

                 = 180 minutes

2. Convert 6 hours into minutes.

We know, 1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore, 6 hours = (6 × 60) minutes = 360 minutes

3. Convert 18 hours into minutes.

We know, 1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore, 6 hours = (18 × 60) minutes = 1080 minutes

4. Convert 9 hours 35 minutes into minutes.

First, we convert 9 hours into minutes and then we add 35 minutes to it.

9 hours 35 minutes = (9 × 60) minutes + 35 minutes (1 hour = 60 minutes)

                             = 540 minutes + 35 minutes = 575 minutes.

5. Convert 7 hours 49 minutes into minutes.

First, we convert 7 hours into minutes and then we add 49 minutes to it.

7 hours 49 minutes = (7 × 60) minutes + 49 minutes (1 hour = 60 minutes)

                             = 420 minutes + 49 minutes = 469 minutes.

6. Convert 7 hours 45 minutes into minutes.

1 hour = 60 minutes

7 hours = 7 × 60 minutes

            = 420 minutes

7 hours 45 minutes = 420 minutes + 45 minutes

                             = 465 minutes

Word Problems on Conversion of Hours into Minutes:

1. Anthony studied for five and half hours. How many minutes did he study?

Solution:

Here,   5 hours = 5 × 60 minutes

                       = 300 minutes

and    half hour = \(\frac{1}{2}\) of 60 minutes

                       = 60 ÷ 2

                      = 30 minutes.

So, 5 and half hours = 300 minutes + 30 minutes

                              = 330 minutes

Therefore, Anthony studied for 330 minutes.
