How it works

A minute has 60 seconds and an hour has 3,600. To convert seconds to minutes, divide by 60: the whole number is the minutes and the remainder is the leftover seconds. Stopwatches and video players show the same value as m:ss or h:mm:ss, while spreadsheets and sports statistics often use decimal minutes.
