Enter the percentage of the total time and the total minutes into the calculator to determine the equivalent time in minutes. This calculator helps to convert a percentage of a time period into actual minutes.
Percentage To Minutes Formula
The following formula is used to convert a percentage to minutes.
M = (P / 100) * TM
Variables:
- M is the equivalent time in minutes
- P is the percentage of the total time
- TM is the total minutes in the time period
To convert a percentage to minutes, divide the percentage by 100 and then multiply by the total minutes in the time period.
What is Percentage To Minutes Conversion?
Percentage to minutes conversion is a way to express a portion of time as a percentage of a larger time period in terms of minutes. This is useful in various scenarios, such as calculating the duration of a segment of a video or the time spent on a specific activity as a percentage of an hour or day.
How to Calculate Minutes from Percentage?
The following steps outline how to calculate minutes from a percentage.
- First, determine the percentage of the total time (P).
- Next, determine the total minutes in the time period (TM).
- Use the formula from above: M = (P / 100) * TM.
- Finally, calculate the equivalent time in minutes (M).
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
Percentage of the total time (P) = 25%
Total minutes in the time period (TM) = 60 minutes
