37 minutes as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Converting time to decimals is a simple yet essential skill. It requires an understanding of the relationship between minutes and hours. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so when converting minutes to a decimal, we are essentially determining how many parts of an hour the minutes represent. A decimal is a way to represent a non-whole number using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole part from the fraction part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, and those to the right represent the fractional part.
