Find how many seconds are left.
We know that 4 hours contain:
4 × 3,600= 14,400 seconds
We started with 15,720 seconds. Subtract the seconds we've already used:
15,720 − 14,400= 1,320 seconds
That leaves 1,320 seconds after counting the 4 full hours.
Final answer
262 minutes = 4 hours and 1,320 seconds
4 full hours + 1,320 seconds left over.
