Cents Per Minute Calculator

Formula

To calculate cents per minute from dollars per hour:

\[ CPM = \frac{DPH}{60} \times 100 \]

Where:

\(CPM\) is the cents per minute
\(DPH\) is the dollars per hour

What are Cents Per Minute?

Cents per minute is a unit of monetary value earned per unit of time, which in this case is cents and minutes, respectively. This is used less commonly than dollars per hour.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following value:

Dollars Per Hour (\(DPH\)) = 20

Using the formula:

Step 1: Divide the dollars per hour by 60:

\[ \frac{DPH}{60} = \frac{20}{60} \approx 0.3333 \]

Step 2: Multiply by 100 to get cents per minute:

\[ CPM = 0.3333 \times 100 = 33.33 \text{ cents} \]

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following value:

Dollars Per Hour (\(DPH\)) = 15

Using the formula:

Step 1: Divide the dollars per hour by 60:

\[ \frac{DPH}{60} = \frac{15}{60} = 0.25 \]

Step 2: Multiply by 100 to get cents per minute:

\[ CPM = 0.25 \times 100 = 25 \text{ cents} \]
