Here we will show you two different methods to convert and write 82 hours and 98 minutes as a decimal.
Method 1:
Because there are 60 minutes in an hour (not 100), we can first convert the 82 hours to minutes by multiplying it by 60.
Then we add that number to the 98 minutes and divide the total by 60. Here is the math and the answer:
(82 x 60) + 98 = 5018 minutes
5018 / 60 = 83.633 hours
Method 2:
You could also make the minutes into a fraction as 98/60, which is the same as 98 divided by 60. Then you
add that result to the 82 hours. Here is the math to illustrate:
98/60 = 1.633
82 + 1.633 = 83.633 hours
