Use these differentiated worksheets to help your children develop their understanding of how to convert between seconds and minutes. There are questions for your children to answer to show they can convert units of time.

How to convert Seconds to Minutes?

There are 60 seconds in one minute. To convert seconds to minutes, this can be easily done by dividing the number of seconds by 60.

For example: How many minutes are in 300 seconds?

300 / 60 = 5 minutes

To convert minutes to seconds you can do the opposite using multiplication.

For example: How many seconds are in 5 minutes?

5 x 60 = 300 seconds
