The working
The factor below is an exact definition rather than a measurement, so nothing is approximated in the arithmetic. The only rounding on this page happens where a number is displayed.
1 hour = 60.000000 minutes 0.25 × 60.000000 = 15
How much precision do you need?
Each row is the same answer cut at a different number of decimals, with what that choice costs you. Pick the shortest row whose error is smaller than whatever you are measuring with.

|---|---|---|
| Whole number | 15 | exact |
| 1 decimal | 15.0 | exact |
| 2 decimals | 15.00 | exact |
