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]
Binary large-scale electronic clock, designed by the artist Norbert Möslang, to indicate the time of day on 3 lines in hours, minutes, seconds on the face of the main railway station in St. Gallen, Switzerland. Time indicated is 9 o'clock 25 minutes 46 seconds.

Minute is a unit of time defined as equal to 60 seconds. [1] One hour contains 60 minutes. [2] Although not a unit in the International System of Units (SI), the minute is accepted for use in the SI. [1] The SI symbol for minutes is min (without a dot). The prime symbol ′ is also sometimes used informally to denote minutes. [3]
The Network Time Protocol used to coordinate time between computers uses an epoch of 1 January 1900, counted in an unsigned 32-bit integer for seconds and another unsigned 32-bit integer for fractional seconds, which rolls over every 2 32 seconds (about once every 136 years).
Most predetermined motion time systems (MTM and MOST) use time measurement units (TMU) instead of seconds for measuring time. One TMU is defined to be 0.00001 hours, or 0.036 seconds according to MTM100 and 0.0000083 hours, or 0.030 seconds according to BS100. [1] These smaller units allow for more accurate calculations without the use of decimals.

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.
