Detailed Solution

Concept: We will use the fundamental idea of time to answer this question, which is that a minute is a unit of time equal to sixty seconds, or one-sixtieth of an hour. Therefore, we will convert the given minutes into seconds using that formula.
6 minutes
As we know that one of the 6060 parts that an hour is divided into, consisting of 6060 seconds is called a minute
Or 1 minute = 60 seconds
Now for 6 minutes we will multiply 6 by 60 seconds
So, 6 minutes =6×60=6×60
Further by multiplying , we have
6 minutes =360=360 seconds
15 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds
Now for 15 minutes we will multiply 15 by 60 seconds
So, 15 minutes =15×60=15×60 seconds
So, 15 minutes =15×60=15×60 seconds
By simplifying , we get
15 minutes =900 seconds
Hence , 6 minutes =360 seconds and 15 minutes =900 seconds
