In practice
Hours to minutes multiplies by 60, since an hour has sixty minutes. The common mistake is treating decimal hours like clock time: 1.5 hours is 90 minutes (1 hour 30 minutes), not 1 hour 50, and 0.25 hours is 15 minutes. It matters for timesheets, billing and cooking times, where 2.75 hours is 2 hours 45 minutes. When tracking time in decimals for pay, convert minutes to a fraction of an hour by dividing by 60, so 20 minutes is 0.33 hours.
