A hexadecimal clock-face (using the Florence meridian) Hexadecimal time is the representation of the time of day as a hexadecimal number in the interval [0, 1). The day is divided into 10 16 (16 10) hexadecimal hours, each hour into 100 16 (256 10) hexadecimal minutes, and each minute into 10 16 (16 10) hexadecimal seconds.
Midnight to 1 a.m. on a 24-hour clock with a digital face. An hour (symbol: h; [1] also abbreviated hr) is a unit of time historically reckoned as 1 ⁄ 24 of a day and defined contemporarily as exactly 3,600 seconds . There are 60 minutes in an hour, and 24 hours in a day.
One décime is equal to 10 decimal minutes, which is nearly equal to a quarter-hour (15 minutes) in standard time. Thus, "five hours two décimes" equals 5.2 decimal hours, roughly 12:30 p.m. in standard time. [8] [9] One hundredth of a decimal second was a decimal tierce. [10]
One hour of time is divided into 60 minutes, and one minute is divided into 60 seconds. Thus, a measurement of time such as 3:23:17 (3 hours, 23 minutes, and 17 seconds) can be interpreted as a whole sexagesimal number (no sexagesimal point), meaning 3 × 60 2 + 23 × 60 1 + 17 × 60 0 seconds.

Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.
