how many full days are in 450000 seconds?
60 * 24 = 1,440 seconds in one day.
450,000 / 1,440 = _______ days
312.5
Right. But the question asks how many full days. So you can't have a fraction or a decimal in your answer.
i thought u have to do 450,000 then 60*60*24
Oops. You're right. I goofed.
60 * 60 * 24 = 86,400
450,000 / 86,400 = 5.2 = 5 days.
When I taught an occasional math class, I was frustrated because I made errors about 5% of the time. Finally I offered extra credit to anyone who politely told me I was wrong.
You just earned extra credit! :-)
To find out how many full days are in 450,000 seconds, you need to divide the given number of seconds by the number of seconds in a day.
There are 24 hours in a day, and each hour has 60 minutes. So, there are 24 * 60 = 1440 minutes in a day.
Similarly, each minute has 60 seconds. So, there are 1440 * 60 = 86,400 seconds in a day.
To get the number of full days in 450,000 seconds, you divide 450,000 by 86,400:
450,000 / 86,400 ≈ 5.2083
Therefore, there are approximately 5 full days in 450,000 seconds.
