Conversion formula
The conversion factor from hours to minutes is 60, which means that 1 hour is equal to 60 minutes:
1 hr = 60 min
To convert 2 hours into minutes we have to multiply 2 by the conversion factor in order to get the time amount from hours to minutes. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:
1 hr → 60 min
2 hr → T(min)
Solve the above proportion to obtain the time T in minutes:
T(min) = 2 hr × 60 min
T(min) = 120 min
The final result is:
2 hr → 120 min
We conclude that 2 hours is equivalent to 120 minutes:
2 hours = 120 minutes
