How many minutes are in 3 and three quarters hours?

Answer 1

Using the following information we can use a simple multiplication or addition problem to solve your inquiry:

• There are 60 minutes per hour
• There are 4 quarters per hour
• Each quarter per hour contains 15 minutes

So based on that information we get:

Addition:

• 60 minutes (Hour 1) + 60 minutes (Hour 2) + 60 minutes (Hour 3) + 15 minutes (Quarter 1) + 15 minutes (Quarter 2) + 15 minutes (Quarter 3) = 3(60) + 3(15) = 180 + 45 = 225 minutes

Multiplication:

• 60 minutes/hour x 3 hours + 60 minutes/hour x 3/4 hour = 225 minutes.

So there are 225 minutes per every 3 and 3/4 hours.
