Hint: In this question, we are going to find the minutes in 0.5 hour.
In this we are going to convert the hour into minutes.
We know one hour is equal to sixty minutes which is required to convert the measuring time from hours to minutes. Each hour is having sixty minutes in it.
So, multiply the number of hours with sixty to get the answer.
Hence, we can get the required result.

Formula used: The formula to convert hours into minutes is
Minute’s= hours ×60
The time in minutes is equal to the hours multiplied by 60.

Complete step-by-step solution:
In this question, we are going to convert the hours into minutes.
First, by using the above formula, we are going to convert the hours into minutes.
Minute’s= hours ×60
Multiply the given hour by sixty
0.5Hours×60
0.5×60
Let us multiply the term and we get,
30Minutes

There are 30 minutes in 0.5 hour.

Note: Units of time measure how long something lasts.
A second is a short amount of time.
A minute is equal to sixty seconds.
An hour is equal to sixty minutes.
To convert the larger units to smaller units we multiply the number of larger units by sixty.
To convert the smaller units to larger units we divide the number of smaller units by sixty.
Hours and minutes are both units used to measure time.
To convert time expressed in decimals back to minutes we will simply take the decimal portion of the number, that is just the digits to the right of the decimal point, and multiply it by sixty.
