a. To convert arc to time:
1. Divide the degrees by 15 to obtain hours.
2. Multiply the remainder from step 1 by four to obtain minutes of time.
3. Divide the minutes of arc by 15 to obtain minutes of time.
4. Multiply the remainder from step 3 by four to obtain seconds of time.
5. Divide the seconds of arc by 15 to obtain seconds of time.
6. Add the resulting hours, minutes, and seconds.
Example 1 : Convert 215° 24' 45" to time units.

Solution:
(1) 215° ÷ 15 = 14h 00m 00s remainder 5
(2) 5×4 = 00h 20m 00s
(3) 24' ÷ 15 = 00h 01m 00s remainder 9
(4) 9×4 = 00h 00m 36s
(5) 45" ÷ 15 = 00h 00m 03s
(6) 215° 24' 45" = 14h 21m 39s

b. To convert time to arc:
1. Multiply the hours by 15 to obtain degrees of arc.
2. Divide the minutes of time by four to obtain degrees.
3. Multiply the remainder of step 2 by 15 to obtain minutes of arc.
4. Divide the seconds of time by four to obtain minutes of arc
5. Multiply the remainder by 15 to obtain seconds of arc.
6. Add the resulting degrees, minutes, and seconds.

Example 2 : Convert 14h 21m 39s to arc.

Solution:
(1) 14h × 15 = 210° 00’ 00"
(2) 21m ÷ 4 = 005° 00’ 00“ (remainder 1)
(3) 1 × 15 = 000° 15’ 00"
(4) 39s ÷ 4 = 000° 09’ 00" (remainder 3)
(5) 3 × 15 = 000° 00’ 45"
(6) 14h21m39s = 215° 24’ 45"
