Timecard GuruHow this conversion works
Keep the 7 whole hours. Convert the minutes on their own: 45 ÷ 60 = 0.75. Add that fraction to the hours: 7 + 0.75 = 7.75.
Write 7.75 on the timesheet. Do not write 7.45. Putting the minutes after the dot is the usual mix-up, and it short-changes the time. 45 minutes is 0.75 of an hour, so 7 hours 45 minutes is 7.75, not 7.45.
