To convert 15 minutes to hours, we have to calculate equivalent hours for 15 minutes.
To change 15 minutes into its equivalent number of hours, we need to calculate the total hours of the 15 minutes by performing division by the constant 60 minutes per hour.
To calculate the resultant hours we will use the following standard time formula.
60 minutes = 1 Hour
⇒1 minute = 1/60 hours
⇒15 minutes = 1/60 hours X 15
⇒ 15 minutes = (15 / 60 ) hours
⇒ 15 x 1/60 hours = 0.25 hours [as 1 hour = 60 minutes]
Therefore the number of hours = 0.25
Hence, after converting 15 in hours as calculated above, we can conclude that
15 minutes ≈ 0.250 hour
Therefore the final result for the query 15 minutes to hours is equivalent to 0.250 hour. (approximately)
