how does steam hours count work?

[Teletha]

so i've played a game for 12.8h how long is that cause if 0.8 is minutes then it is 80minutes but 1 hour is 60 minutes but it only changes the left side of the decimal when the right side goes over 0.10 which in my eyes it looks like every hour is 100minutes? so 12h would be 12*100min and i get the correct time played which would be (12.8h)12*100+80=1280Minutes

 

can some 1 clarify how this works =/ ?

0.8 hours is 0.8*60 which is 48 minutes.

Half a minute is 30 seconds right? Not 50 seconds.

If you have played a game for 12.8 hours, you have played it for 768 minutes.

Because 12.8*60 = 786 minutes.

An hour is not 100 minutes?
