There are 60 minutes in an hour so the mixed number can be represented as.
[tex]2 \frac{15}{60} [/tex] hours

but can be simplified to 
[tex]2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex] hours

As an improper fraction, you multiply 2 by 60 and add that to the 15/60 giving you 
[tex] \frac{135}{60} [/tex] hours

Which can be reduced to 
[tex] \frac{9}{4} [/tex] hours
