Explanation: Hour to Minute Conversion
The conversion factor between hours and minutes is derived by expressing both units in terms of the common base unit of seconds. One hour equals 3,600 seconds, and one minute equals 60 seconds. Dividing these values gives the direct conversion factor of 60 minutes per hour.
