Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.02: 100 × 0.02 ≈ 2 min, against the exact 1.666667 min (20.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.
Common mistakes
The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A second is smaller than a minute, so the number of minutes must come out smaller than the number of seconds. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
