To convert 3 minutes to hours, we have to calculate equivalent hours for 3 minutes.
To change 3 minutes into its equivalent number of hours, we need to calculate the total hours of the 3 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
⇒3 minutes = 1/60 hours X 3
⇒ 3 minutes = (3 / 60 ) hours
⇒ 3 x 1/60 hours = 0.05 hours [as 1 hour = 60 minutes]
Therefore the number of hours = 0.05
Hence, after converting 3 in hours as calculated above, we can conclude that
3 minutes ≈ 0.050 hour
Therefore the final result for the query 3 minutes to hours is equivalent to 0.050 hour. (approximately)
