At first, to convert 480 minutes to hours and minutes, we have to convert 480 minutes into hours.
To change 480 minutes into its equivalent number of hours and leftover minutes, we first need to calculate the total hours component of the 480 minutes by performing division by the constant 60 minutes per hour.
480 minutes / 60 minutes
⇒ 480 minutes x 1/60 hours = 8 hours [as 1 minute = 1/60 hours]
The number of hours will be 8.
Now we have to find out the remaining minutes. To acheive this we can simply take the decimal part 8 and convert it into minutes. In this case there is no decimal parts and hence the decimal part will be equal to 0. Now to calculate the remaining minutes we need to muitiply 0 by 60 minutes.
0 hours X 60 minutes = 0 minute
Hence, combining the values of hours and minutes calculated above, we can conclude that
480 minutes = 8 hours and 0 minute
Therefore the final result for the query 480 minutes in hours and minutes is equivalent to 8 hours and 0 minute.
