Default convert angle minute to decimal

Hi There

I want to convert an angle 1 degree 02 minutes to decimal so that i can calculate the sine of the angle.
now =1+(.02/60) gives me the answer but how do I automate it so that a 1.02 input in one cell will give me the desired 1.03 result.
Can I use the part of the input behind the decimal point and divide it? Or do i need to split the input into 2 seperate cells?

cheers
