Does 61 minutes = "hours" in a grammatical sense?

Asked by MyNewtBoobs (19059points) August 5th, 2010

I was talking with someone, and they said that it took them hours to do something – specifically, 61 minutes. I (and everyone else) said that you needed at least 2 hours or 120 minutes in order to say “hours” and not “an hour and blank minutes”. Which of us is correct?
