Question

What equation can you use to find m the number of minutes in hours

Answer 1

We know there are 60 minutes in one hour. Considering we will call m the number of minutes and h the number of hours, we can establish the following equation:

`h = (1)/(60) m`

Basically, this says that every minute (m) accounts for 1/60 of an hour (h). You could also multiply both sides by 60 to get this equation:

`60h = m`

Thus, an equation would be
`\boxed{h = (1)/(60) m}` or
`\boxed{60h = m}`.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Let the number of hours be represented by 'h'

h * m = number of minutes in hours
