Tenths to Minutes Conversion?

Question

How do I work out what .13 of an hour is? The answer was 15.13 meaning 15 hours after midday, but what is the .13 equivalent to? is it a percentage thing or...?

Answer 1

0.13 of an hour

= 0.13 x 60 minutes

= 7.8 minutes

0.8 minutes

= 0.8 x 60 seconds

= 48 seconds

Answer 2

.13 is 13/100 of an hour.

If you want that in minutes, then you need to figure out the equivalent number of "60ths".

13 ..... x

----- = -----

100 ... 60

100x = 13 * 60

100x = 780

x = 780/100

x = 7.8

0.13 hours = 7.8 minutes

And .8 minutes = 48 seconds

8/10 = 48/60

Answer:

0.13 = 7 minutes 48 seconds
