Here we will show you two different methods to convert and write 4 hours and 64 minutes as a decimal.
Method 1:
Because there are 60 minutes in an hour (not 100), we can first convert the 4 hours to minutes by multiplying it by 60.
Then we add that number to the 64 minutes and divide the total by 60. Here is the math and the answer:
(4 x 60) + 64 = 304 minutes
304 / 60 = 5.067 hours
Method 2:
You could also make the minutes into a fraction as 64/60, which is the same as 64 divided by 60. Then you
add that result to the 4 hours. Here is the math to illustrate:
64/60 = 1.067
4 + 1.067 = 5.067 hours
