6 hours 45 min. .75 of an hour is the same as 3 quarters. an hour has 4 15 min intervules. this equals 45 min of that hour.

Answer:

6 hours 45 minutes.

Explanation:

After finishing his shift, a security guard wrote "6.75 hours worked" on his time card.

We have to calculate the time the guard has worked.

Now we convert (0.75) hours to minutes

0.75 hours = 0.75 × 60 minutes

= 45 minutes.

So total worked by security guard = 6 hours 45 minutes.

He worked 6 hours 45 minutes.
