1 hours and minutes as decimals
One hour is the building block: every minute you add is the decimal part of the hour. To convert 1 hours and any number of minutes, add the minutes ÷ 60 to 1. The table below does it in 5-minute steps and shows the pay at $15, $20 and $25 an hour.

Worked example: 1:10
1 hours 10 minutes
10 minutes ÷ 60 = 0.1667, so 1:10 = 1 + 0.1667 = 1.1667 hours (rounded to two places: 1.17).
Pay at $18.00 an hour: 1.17 × $18 = $21.06. Five days of 1:10 = 5.83 decimal hours (5:50) = $104.94.
Going the other way
To turn a decimal like 1.17 back into hours and minutes, keep the whole hours (1) and multiply the decimal part by 60: 0.17 × 60 = 10.2 minutes. Use the decimal hours converter for any value.
