<p>This is a straightforward question on converting time to decimal form. First, we must understand how time is represented in hours and minutes. An hour is divided into 60 minutes. To convert minutes into a decimal, we express the minutes as a fraction of an hour and then convert this fraction into a decimal. The whole number to the left of the decimal point represents the full hours, while the decimal portion represents the minutes as a fraction of an hour.</p>
