/**
* Millis / 1000: First, divide the total number of milliseconds by 1000 to get the total number of seconds.
* / 60: Then, divide the total number of seconds by 60 to get the total number of minutes (but this may be a decimal).
* Math.floor(...): Using the Math.floor function, you can remove the decimal part of the obtained decimal number and keep only the integer part, that is, the actual complete number of minutes.
* % 60: Finally, we perform the modulus 60 operation (taking remainder) for the number of minutes, so that we can get the remaining minutes in an hour. This is necessary, because there are 60 minutes in an hour, and what we need is the rest of an hour.
