1
Find how many complete hours fit into 78 minutes.
Divide 78 minutes by 3,600:
78 ÷ 3,600 = 1.3
This means 78 minutes contains1 full hours, plus a little extra time.

Find how many seconds are left.
We know that 1 hours contain:
1 × 3,600= 3,600 seconds
We started with 4,680 seconds. Subtract the seconds we've already used:
4,680 − 3,600= 1,080 seconds
That leaves 1,080 seconds after counting the 1 full hours.
Final answer
78 minutes = 1 hours and 1,080 seconds
1 full hours + 1,080 seconds left over.
