How It Works

Understanding the conversion

Since there are 60 minutes in every hour, multiplying the number of hours by 60 gives you the total minute count. For decimal hours, the math still works cleanly: 1.5 hours × 60 = 90 minutes, 2.25 hours × 60 = 135 minutes. The converter handles any decimal input, so you can convert fractional hours from timesheets or reports without having to do the arithmetic manually.
