How this conversion works
The digits before the decimal point are the whole hours (1). The rest is a fraction of the next hour, not a minute count. Multiply that fraction by 60: 0.25 × 60 = 15. That is 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Do not read 1.25 as 1 hour and 25 minutes. 1.25 hours is 1 hour and 15 minutes, because 0.25 × 60 = 15.
