#105# minutes

Explanation:

To change a number of hours into minutes, multiply by #60#.

It does not matter whether the hours are given as a whole number, as a fraction or as a decimal.

#1 3/4 xx60#

#=7/4 xx 60#

#105# minutes

Notice what happens to the units:

#"hours" xx "minutes per hour"#

#= "minutes"#
