Adding Time on a Calculator Adding time on a calculator without converting the minutes to hundredths is inaccurate. Units of time are calculated as 60 minutes equals 1 hour, but a calculator uses units of 100. For example, if an employee worked 9 hours and 30 minutes on one day and 8 hours and 45 minutes on the day, the time card would display 9:30 for day 1 and 8:45 for day 2. If you were to add these without converting on a calculator, you would get 17.75 hours which is 17 hours and 45 minutes. 9.30 8.45 17.75 = 17 hours and 45 minutes. This is inaccurate. When you change the minutes to 100ths using the conversion chart below, the 9:30 becomes 9.50 and the 8:45 becomes 8.75.
