Hi guys, I am stuck on a math question on Conversions, Rates, Ratios. Please help me!
1) 15 dollars/hour = _______ cents/minutes
1) 15 dollars/hour = _______ cents/minutes

You know that dollars goes with cents and hours goes with minutes. You divide both by 60, there are 60 minutes in an hour, so to find how many cents in a minute, you divide both by 60. 15/60 is 25 cents. This would mean that 15 dollars an hour is equivalent to 25 cents per minute. So your answer would be 25 cents/minute.

$15.00 = 1,500 cents/ hour
1,500/ 60 = 25 cents/ minute
1,500/ 60 = 25 cents/ minute
