Why this matters
Payroll and accounting software almost always expects time entries in decimal hours. If your tracking system gives you "7h 45m" but your invoice template needs "7.75", you have to convert. This calculator does it both ways instantly.
Minutes to decimal hours chart
To turn minutes into a decimal, divide them by 60. The chart covers every minute of the hour, so a time card that reads 7 hours 45 minutes becomes 7.75 hours.

Decimal hours to hours and minutes
Going the other way, keep the whole number as hours and multiply the decimal part by 60. 0.25 of an hour is 15 minutes, so 7.25 hours is 7 hours 15 minutes, and 2.67 hours is 2 hours 40 minutes.
| Decimal hours | Minutes |
|---|---|
| 0.1 | 6 minutes |
| 0.2 | 12 minutes |
| 0.25 | 15 minutes |
| 0.3 | 18 minutes |
| 0.33 | 20 minutes |
| 0.4 | 24 minutes |
| 0.5 | 30 minutes |
| 0.6 | 36 minutes |
| 0.67 | 40 minutes |
| 0.7 | 42 minutes |
| 0.75 | 45 minutes |
| 0.8 | 48 minutes |
| 0.9 | 54 minutes |
Skip conversions entirely
Timesheet exports your entries in both formats out of the box. CSV exports include both hh:mm and decimal columns so your payroll provider or accountant can use whichever they prefer without manual conversion.
