Result (minutes) = Input value (minutes)
This works because no conversion factor is needed when converting a unit to itself. For example, if you have 15 minutes, converting it to minutes means it stays 15.
Step-by-step:
- Start with 12 minutes.
- Apply the formula: Result = 12.
- The conversion result is 12 minutes.
Conversion Example
- Convert 20 minutes to minutes:
- Take the input of 20 minutes.
- Since units match, the value stays same.
- Result: 20 minutes.
- Convert 5.5 minutes to minutes:
- Start with 5.5 minutes.
- Apply the identity conversion.
- Output: 5.5 minutes.
- Convert 0 minutes to minutes:
- Input is zero.
- Zero remains zero when converting.
- Final answer: 0 minutes.
- Convert 100 minutes to minutes:
- Begin with 100 minutes.
- Conversion does not change value.
- Result is 100 minutes.
