You can select your preferred time display for their worked hours: decimal format or minute format. The difference in how time is displayed can change how you understand your time card and hours worked. Some people find it easier to visually comprehend time in the minute format, whereas others might prefer to read time in decimals. For example, 30 minutes can be depicted as 30 or .50.

Tip: To convert minutes into decimals, run an internet search for "Convert minutes to hours" to find a converter, or you can divide the number of minutes by 60 (20/60=0.333...)
