Hours to Minutes

Converting hours to minutes is one of the most common time conversions, and it’s incredibly easy once you remember the basic rule: 1 hour = 60 minutes.

So to convert hours into minutes, simply multiply your number of hours by 60.

Formula:
Hours × 60 = Minutes

Examples

  • 1 hour × 60 = 60 minutes

  • 2 hours × 60 = 120 minutes

  • 5 hours × 60 = 300 minutes

  • 10 hours × 60 = 600 minutes

This conversion is useful in many everyday situations. For example, if a movie lasts 2.5 hours, multiplying 2.5 × 60 tells you it runs 150 minutes. If you work for 7.5 hours a day, that’s 450 minutes of active work time.

Thinking in minutes helps when planning detailed schedules, tracking productivity, or breaking long tasks into smaller segments. Instead of saying “I’ll work for 3 hours,” you can plan “180 minutes of focus” — which makes your goal feel more precise and time-bound.

Even small spans like half an hour (0.5 hours) become clearer once you convert them: 0.5 × 60 = 30 minutes. It’s a handy way to understand shorter tasks or waiting periods too.

So next time you’re managing your routine, remember — every hour equals 60 minutes, and with a quick multiplication, you can measure time with accuracy and ease.
