Question

Convert 10800 seconds into hours and minutes.

• A. 3 hours 30 minutes
• B. 3 hours
• C. 3 hours 10 minutes
• D. 2 hours 30 minutes

Answer 1

The correct option is B 3 hours

Count of seconds = 10800
Note that 1 hour = 60 minutes and 1 minute = 60 seconds.
$\Rightarrow$ An hour has $60\times 60=3600$ seconds.


Dividing 10800 with total count of seconds in an hour, i.e., $10800÷3600$, we get 3 and 0 as the quotient and remainder respectively.
Therefore, 10800 secs = 3 hours and 0 minutes = 3 hours.
