120 minutes is two hours and 180 minutes would be 3 hours.


I tried it on the calculator by dividing it by 60 and it gives you the answer. I got 2.98. 179 minutes is a minute away from three hours. So always divide the minutes by 60 since there is 60 minutes in a hour and it will give you your answer.
