Time unit conversion at a glance
Time unit conversion involves converting between different units of time. It is important to remember that, unlike the metric system, time does not work in powers of katex is not defined.
The time conversion rates are:
- katex is not defined seconds katex is not defined minute
- katex is not defined minutes katex is not defined hour
- katex is not defined hours katex is not defined day
- katex is not defined days katex is not defined week
- katex is not defined days katex is not defined year
Converting to smaller or larger units can make a measurement of time easier to understand. For example, katex is not defined seconds is much easier to understand when it is converted to katex is not defined hours.
Mistakes can often be made when converting hours to minutes and converting minutes to seconds or vice versa.
To convert hours to minutes we must multiply by katex is not defined, for example katex is not defined hours katex is not defined minutes. To convert hours to minutes, we must divide by katex is not defined, for example katex is not defined minutes katex is not defined hours katex is not defined hour katex is not defined minutes. Notice here that katex is not defined hours is katex is not defined minutes (a quarter of an hour) not katex is not defined minutes as katex is not defined.
In order to solve problems involving time unit conversion, students should be confident in telling time and the katex is not defined hour clock.
Looking forward, students can then progress to additional conversion worksheets and other ratio and proportion worksheets, for example a ratio worksheet or a simplifying and equivalent ratios worksheet.
For more teaching and learning support on Ratio and Proportion our GCSE maths lessons provide step by step support for all GCSE maths concepts.
