How many minutes are in 4 hours and 47 minutes? There are 60 minutes in an hour.(1 point) minutes

4 hours is equal to 4 x 60 = <<4*60=240>>240 minutes.

Therefore, there are a total of 240 + 47 = <<240+47=287>>287 minutes in 4 hours and 47 minutes. Answer: \boxed{287}.

To calculate the total number of minutes in 4 hours and 47 minutes, we need to convert the hours into minutes and then add them to the given minutes.

1 hour = 60 minutes
So, 4 hours = 4 * 60 = 240 minutes

Now, adding the given 47 minutes to 240 minutes, we get:
240 + 47 = 287 minutes

Therefore, there are 287 minutes in 4 hours and 47 minutes.

To convert hours into minutes, you need to multiply the number of hours by 60 because there are 60 minutes in an hour.

In this case, we have 4 hours. So, multiplying 4 by 60 gives us 240 minutes.

Now we add the 47 minutes to the result.

240 minutes + 47 minutes = 287 minutes.

Therefore, there are 287 minutes in 4 hours and 47 minutes.
