This calculator was created with people like you in mind who want to accomplish their tasks more easily. Additionally, this tool can save you time and convert time accurately.
How to Use Hours-Minutes Converter
- Calculating hours to minutes using this calculator is a simple job.
- Enter number of hours in the first input box to see the result in minutes displayed in the second box.
Formula
Using a simple formula, time value can be simply converted from hours to minutes. The formula for converting hours-seconds is shown below.
Relation Between Time Units
As we all know, time is a continuous measurement that can be measured by various units for different periods of time. The most commonly used time measurement units are seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years.
The relationship between the most widespread time units is shown below.
- 1 second = 1,000 milliseconds
- 1 minute = 60 seconds
- 1 hour = 60 minutes
- 1 day = 24 hours
- 1 week = 7 days
- 1 month = 30 or 31 days (depending on the month), or 4 weeks
- 1 year = 12 months, or 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year)
Examples
This hour to minute time converter tool works flawlessly, but it’s always a good idea to learn a little mathematics so that your work won’t be halted if you are unable to access the tool for some reason.
Two examples that have been solved below will walk you through the process of manually converting hours to minutes.
Example :
1. Convert 288 hours to minutes.
Solution :
The relationship between various time units has been studied, and we now know that one hour is equivalent to 60 minutes. Therefore, to convert the number of hours to minutes, we will use the formula above.
Minutes = Hours × 60
Minutes = 288 × 60
Minutes = 17280 minutes.
288 Hours = 17280 Minutes.
Example :
2. Convert 23 hrs 35 min to minutes.
Solution :
In this example, the time value is provided in hours and minutes, which must then be converted to minutes. The procedure for converting the value into minutes is the same as in the first example. The only catch is that we will only convert the value of the hours into minutes and then add it to the given minutes value.
Hours = 23 h
Minutes = 35 min
Minutes = Hours × 60
Minutes = 23 × 60
Minutes = 1380 min
Adding the minutes value,
Minutes = 1380 + 35 (given)
Minutes = 1415 min
23 Hours 35 Minutes is equivalent to 1415 Minutes.
