39 minutes as a Decimal

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

It is a simple question on decimal conversion. Firstly, we have to learn about time conversion and decimals. Time is often measured in hours and minutes. To convert minutes into a decimal, you determine what fraction of an hour those minutes represent. An hour is divided into 60 minutes. A decimal is a way to represent numbers not whole, using a decimal point (.) to separate the whole number part from the fractional part. The numbers to the left of the decimal point represent the whole, while those to the right represent the fractional part.
