15 Minutes in Seconds
Answer
15 minutes = 900 seconds
A minute holds 60 seconds, so fifteen minutes is 15 × 60 = 900 seconds. It is also a quarter of 3,600, the number of seconds in an hour.
The number matters if you are setting a timer in a script, a piece of exercise equipment or an oven that only accepts seconds. In code, 900 or 900000 milliseconds is the value you want.
