OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

which answer choice

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Oh I can't just give you the answer :p I must help you understand the problem you are working on so that when another problem that is similar comes up, you'll know what to do without getting help c:

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

60 seconds = 1 minute

OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

ok

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

60 minutes = 1 hour

OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

ok

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

So the question is asks us to tell us the time in smallest unit, in this case, in minutes.

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

So they want us to transfer 2 hours and 26 minutes right?

OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

yea

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Since we're placing this time into minutes, we don't have to mess with the "26 minutes" right? c: We'' just add the "26 minutes" at the end, when we find out how many minutes are in "2 hours"

OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

ok

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Since there 60 minutes= 1 hour, what do we do so we can find out how many minutes are in 2 hours?

OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

add

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

You can multiply c:

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

If 1 hour = 60 min 2 hours = ? min

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

You would multiply 60 x 2

OpenStudy (90890908967777878888):

40
