5 days
3600 seconds/hr * 2 hr = x *60*24
yes
To find the number of minutes in a certain number of days, we need to convert the given hours into seconds and then convert those seconds into minutes.
First, let's find the number of seconds in 2 hours. There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, and 60 seconds in 1 minute. So, the number of seconds in 2 hours would be: 2 hours x 60 minutes/hour x 60 seconds/minute = 7200 seconds.
Next, we need to convert those seconds into minutes. There are 60 seconds in 1 minute, so the number of minutes would be: 7200 seconds ÷ 60 seconds/minute = 120 minutes.
Now that we know that there are 120 minutes in 7200 seconds, we can proceed to find the number of minutes in the given number of days.
To find the number of minutes in a certain number of days, we need to know the number of hours in a day. Since a day consists of 24 hours, we can multiply the number of hours in a day by the number of minutes in 1 hour.
Therefore, the number of minutes in a day would be: 24 hours/day x 60 minutes/hour = 1440 minutes.
Finally, let's calculate the number of days it would take to have the same number of minutes as 7200 seconds.
The number of days would be: 120 minutes ÷ 1440 minutes/day ≈ 0.08 days.
So, the number of minutes in 7200 seconds is equivalent to approximately 0.08 days.
