Is the following true or false? (Assume that 1 ton is approximately a 1000kg)
1 week is 10080 minutes
True.
There are 60 minutes in an hour and 24 hours in a day. Therefore, there are 60 minutes/hour * 24 hours/day = 1440 minutes/day.
Therefore, in one week, which has 7 days, there are 7 * 1440 = 10080 minutes.
To determine if the statement is true or false, we need to convert 1 week into minutes using the fact that there are 60 minutes in one hour and 24 hours in one day.
Step 1: Convert days in a week
There are 7 days in a week.
Step 2: Convert hours in a day
There are 24 hours in a day.
Step 3: Convert minutes in an hour
There are 60 minutes in an hour.
Now, let's calculate the total minutes in one week by multiplying the number of days by the number of hours in a day, and then by the number of minutes in an hour:
7 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes = 10080 minutes
Therefore, the statement "1 week is 10080 minutes" is true.
To determine whether the statement is true or false, we need to check if there are indeed 10,080 minutes in one week.
To calculate the number of minutes in a week, we need to know how many minutes are in one day, and then multiply that by the number of days in a week.
There are 24 hours in a day and 60 minutes in one hour, so there are 24 * 60 = 1,440 minutes in one day.
Since there are 7 days in a week, we can multiply the number of minutes in one day by the number of days in a week to find the total number of minutes in a week: 1,440 * 7 = 10,080 minutes.
Therefore, the statement is true.
