This is a wrong assumption since you enter those four spent-time values using
decimal time format. This means that:
- 1.00 equals 1 hour (60 minutes)
- 0.10 equals 6 minutes
- 0.15 equals 9 minutes
- 0.40 equals 24 minutes
- 1.65 equals 99 minutes
- 2.05 hours (125 minutes) equals 2.0833333333333335 (est.) in decimal notation
Offcourse there can possibly be a very tiny difference (as you can see) due to the rounding to two decimals done by Redmine.

Why can't we store it in minutes instead of hours?
You can enter 10m or 10min.
