I have one more question on this if you don’t mind. I’m a bit confused on how
it works this way without it being in seconds? I’ll answer below each step of
how it seems to work to me.
How to do it from the small end up:

OH, I think I figured it out.
time = int(raw_input(Enter number of seconds: “))
100
seconds = time % 60
Remainder of 40 - for seconds.
time /= 60
Here you take 100/60 = 1 (which = time for the next line).

So here it takes say 100 and divides it by 60 to put in seconds and
spits out the remainder? 100 / 60

Yep, you've got it!

Close! But if you print out foo and bar, you'll see that you're naming
them backwards in the second one. The last digit is the remainder
(modulo), the rest is the quotient.
So, this is more like what you’re talking about?

would be inclined to start from the small end and strip off the

Now we begin to split it up:
