Here we will show you two different methods to convert and write 13 hours and 29 minutes as a decimal.
Method 1:
Because there are 60 minutes in an hour (not 100), we can first convert the 13 hours to minutes by multiplying it by 60.
Then we add that number to the 29 minutes and divide the total by 60. Here is the math and the answer:
(13 x 60) + 29 = 809 minutes
809 / 60 = 13.483 hours
Method 2:
You could also make the minutes into a fraction as 29/60, which is the same as 29 divided by 60. Then you
add that result to the 13 hours. Here is the math to illustrate:
29/60 = 0.483
13 + 0.483 = 13.483 hours
