Intoduction
We write the time in hours and minutes with either a
full stop or a colon in between.
For example, twenty past nine can be written in the following ways:
· 9:20 (there is a colon between the 9 and the 20)
· 9.20 (there is a full stop between the 9 and the 20)
Time is a non-decimal system. This means it is not measured in tens. For example:
· One day is 24 hours
· One hour is 60 minutes
· One minute is 60 seconds
Because of this, you need to be careful when making calculations that involve hours and minutes.
