To convert minutes to hours and minutes, you can follow these steps:
1. **Divide the total minutes by 60** to get the number of hours. The quotient will be the hours.
2. **Take the remainder** from the division to get the remaining minutes.
Let’s go through some examples:
1. **150 minutes**:
– 150 ÷ 60 = 2 hours with a remainder of 30 minutes.
– So, 150 minutes is **2 hours and 30 minutes**.
2. **185 minutes**:
– 185 ÷ 60 = 3 hours with a remainder of 5 minutes.
– So, 185 minutes is **3 hours and 5 minutes**.
3. **295 minutes**:
– 295 ÷ 60 = 4 hours with a remainder of 55 minutes.
– So, 295 minutes is **4 hours and 55 minutes**.
4. **308 minutes**:
– 308 ÷ 60 = 5 hours with a remainder of 8 minutes.
– So, 308 minutes is **5 hours and 8 minutes**.
5. **92 minutes**:
– 92 ÷ 60 = 1 hour with a remainder of 32 minutes.
– So, 92 minutes is **1 hour and 32 minutes**.
6. **227 minutes**:
– 227 ÷ 60 = 3 hours with a remainder of 47 minutes.
– So, 227 minutes is **3 hours and 47 minutes**.
7. **164 minutes**:
– 164 ÷ 60 = 2 hours with a remainder of 44 minutes.
– So, 164 minutes is **2 hours and 44 minutes**.
8. **210 minutes**:
– 210 ÷ 60 = 3 hours with a remainder of 30 minutes.
– So, 210 minutes is **3 hours and 30 minutes**.
9. **312 minutes**:
– 312 ÷ 60 = 5 hours with a remainder of 12 minutes.
– So, 312 minutes is **5 hours and 12 minutes**.
10. **274 minutes**:
– 274 ÷ 60 = 4 hours with a remainder of 34 minutes.
– So, 274 minutes is **4 hours and 34 minutes**.
11. **Valerie spends 178 minutes working**:
– 178 ÷ 60 = 2 hours with a remainder of 58 minutes.
– So, 178 minutes is **2 hours and 58 minutes**.
This method is simple and can be used to convert any number of minutes into hours and minutes.
