How to convert decimalised hours into hours and minutes
Separate the whole number from the decimal: The whole number represents the hours, and the decimal represents the fraction of the hour.
Convert the decimal to minutes: Multiply the decimal part by 60 (since there are 60 minutes in an hour).
For example, Anna, the waiting staff, is scheduled for a 7.75-hour shift on Monday. The whole number 7 represents the hours, and the decimal part, 0.75, can be multiplied by 60 to convert it into 45 minutes. Therefore, 7.75 hours is equivalent to 7 hours and 45 minutes.
Decimal: 7.75 hours
Hours: 7
Minutes: 0.75 × 60 = 45
Result: 7 hours and 45 minutes
