Conversion of units of time

Kushal is having a test at school.

teacher: You have only 15 minutes left to complete the test.

Kushal: Ma’am, what is the duration of our test in minutes?

teacher: The test is of 1 hour 15 minutes, i.e., 75 minutes.

Kushal: How?

teacher: Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

So, 1 hour and 15 minutes = 1 hour + 15 minutes

= 60 minutes + 15 minutes

= 75 minutes

Observe the relationships between the units of time.

1 hour = 60 minutes 1 month = 30 days

1 day = 24 hours 1 year = 12 months
1 week = 7 days 1 year = 365 days

example 1: Mohit practised cricket for 180 minutes. For how many hours did he play
cricket?
Solution: 60 minutes = 1 hour

180 minutes = 180 ÷ 60 = 3 hours
Thus, Mohit practised cricket for 3 hours.
