The number of seconds in 2 hours equals the number of minutes in
A. 1 day
B. 2 days
C. 4 days
D. 5 days
2 hours is 7200 seconds.
one day is 1440 minutes.
so, ...
To determine the correct answer, we need to convert both the hours and days into the same unit of time.
First, let's calculate the number of seconds in 2 hours. There are 60 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute, so the number of seconds in 2 hours would be:
2 hours * 60 minutes/hour * 60 seconds/minute = 7,200 seconds.
Now, let's determine the number of minutes in each of the given options:
A. 1 day has 24 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 1,440 minutes.
B. 2 days have 2 * 24 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 2,880 minutes.
C. 4 days have 4 * 24 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 5,760 minutes.
D. 5 days have 5 * 24 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 7,200 minutes.
The number of seconds in 2 hours is equal to the number of minutes in 5 days. Therefore, the correct answer is option D. 5 days.
