5 hours = 5 x 60 minutes = 300 minutes


Convert from minutes to seconds

7 minutes = 7 x 60 seconds = 420 seconds

8 minutes = 8 x 60 seconds = 480 seconds


Second (Mixed Units)
Convert from hours and minutes to minutes

4 hours 5 minutes 
= 4 x 60 minutes + 5 minutes
= 240 minutes + 5 minutes
= 245 minutes

6 hours 24 minutes 
= 6 x 60 minutes + 24 minutes
= 360 minutes + 24 minutes
= 384 minutes

Convert from minutes and seconds to seconds

12 minutes 54 seconds 
= 12 x 60 seconds + 54 seconds
= 720 seconds + 54 seconds
= 774 seconds

14 minutes 28 seconds 
= 14 x 60 seconds + 28 seconds
= 840 seconds + 28 seconds
= 868 seconds

21 minutes 41 seconds
= 21 x 60 seconds + 41 seconds
= 1260 + 41 seconds
= 1301 seconds


Small to Big

First (Single Unit: Whole Numbers)

Convert from minutes to hours

360 minutes = (360 / 60) hours = 6 hours



480 minutes = (480 / 60) hours = 8 hours



540 minutes = (540 / 60) hours = 9 hours


Convert from seconds to minutes


600 seconds = (600 / 60) minutes = 10 minutes


720 seconds = (720 / 60) minutes = 12 minutes


840 seconds = (840 / 60) minutes = 14 minutes

Second (Mixed Units, Mixed Numbers)

366 minutes = (366 / 60) hours = 6 hours 6 minutes
or
= 6 6/60 hours = 6 1/10 hours

492 minutes = (492 / 60) = 8 hours 12 minutes
= 8 12/60 hours = 8 1/5 hours
