Here we will show you two different methods to convert and write 25 hours and 84 minutes as a decimal.
Method 1:
Because there are 60 minutes in an hour (not 100), we can first convert the 25 hours to minutes by multiplying it by 60.
Then we add that number to the 84 minutes and divide the total by 60. Here is the math and the answer:
(25 x 60) + 84 = 1584 minutes
1584 / 60 = 26.400 hours
Method 2:
You could also make the minutes into a fraction as 84/60, which is the same as 84 divided by 60. Then you
add that result to the 25 hours. Here is the math to illustrate:
84/60 = 1.400
25 + 1.400 = 26.400 hours
Note: Answers on this page are rounded to the nearest three decimals.
