Hey there!!

1 min - 60 seconds, as we have a value in seconds, first let us convert it into seconds

10 hours 39 minutes 24 seconds

24 seconds is already is seconds , so let us keep it aside

39 into seconds

as 1 min = 60 seconds

39 min = 60 × 39 seconds

= 2340 seconds

10 hours into seconds

1 hour = 60 min

60 min 60 × 60 seconds

= 3600 seconds

as it 10 hours ,

3600 × 10

= 36000 seconds

add them all up

36000 + 2340 + 24

total seconds = 38364 seconds

as 1 min = 60 seconds

we can write this as

60 seconds = 1 min

then

38364 seconds = ? min

38364 seconds = 38364 / 60 min

= 639.4 minutes

The required answer is 639.4
