1. HTML/CSS training - [0.5 hours]. 2. PHP training - [9 hours]. Now I do know about quasi possessive but this doesn't sound like a quasi possessive. I want to know whether it should be 9 hour or 9 hours? Maybe it might be 9 hours because it's more than 1 but writing 0.5 hours seems a bit confusing. Please let me know what's the correct usage ...

1 hour 54 mins. - A duration; 1 min. 54 seconds - A duration; 1 out of 54 - a ratio; probably many others; So your best bet is to know your target audience. For example office workers that always work 9am to 5pm will see 1:54 is 1 hour 54 mins. after 12 - noon. While an audio editing team of people may see it as 1 min, 54 seconds.
The advantage of using minute and second symbols for time is that it obviously expresses a duration rather than a time. From the time 01:00:00 to the time 02:34:56 is a duration of 1 hour, 34 minutes and 56 seconds (1h 34′ 56″) Prime markers start single and are multiplied for susbsequent appearances, so minutes use a single prime ′ and ...

Guidance for taking pills usually states before food or after food (for particular medical reasons), or nothing at all (i.e. take it when you want). It's is very unusual to advise taking pills either upto one hour before or upto 1 hour after taking food. Therefore, my guess is that the advice is to take the pills an hour before you eat. –
To me, three, hour-long sessions implies 3 lots of 1 hour, tri-partite; three hour-long sessions implies that the interview is cut up into any number of sessions, each three lasting three hours. – BladorthinTheGrey
1. In my impression, there is one word means the time is almost exactly, like "almost exactly 1 hour". It is less precise than exactly. (Is "punctually one hour" a right term?) But more accurate than about 1 hour. (How to say "about one hour"? 1-hour-ish?) Your suggestion "punctually one hour" I think is fine, if the context is completion of ...
The abbreviation for hour is hr: (plural hrs) . written abbreviation for hour : He ran the marathon in 2 hrs 48 mins. formal The plane departs at 15.00 hrs. (Cambridge dictionary) Or. h: abbr. hour.
Standard units of measure have standard abbreviations. The hour and minute are not standard units (the standard unit is the second, symbol s), and consequently their abbreviations are not entirely standardised. Note that where hour is used as a unit, for example in kilowatt-hour, it does have a standard symbol, h. The symbol for kilowatt-hour ...
