Time on the Calculator WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Students will learn how to interpret fractions and decimals as time when using a calculator to calculate with time, and how to make use of the degree, minutes, and seconds buttons.

In section A, students are faced with six calculator displays of terminating and recurring decimal numbers, such as 10.1, which they will interpret as hours and minutes as well as minutes and seconds.

Next, students will interpret mixed numbers and improper fractions as time in hours and minutes.

Section C teaches learners how to use the degree, minute, and second buttons on a calculator, and then how to use to convert decimals and fractions to time and vice versa.
