Define R = 2479.24
Start Loop
Find the highest power, P, of 60 that is smaller than R ie 60P ≤ R < 60P+1.
Find the integer value of R/60P = I
The digit in 60P place is I. Note that "digit" ranges from 0 to 59.
Calculate R by (R - I*60P)
If R = 0 then stop.
If not, go around the loop again until you have the desired level of accuracy.
2479.2410 = 41 19 . 03 13 07 ...
ie 41*601 + 19*600 + 03*60-1 + 13*60-2 + 07*60-3 + ...
