For this case we must convert 21 hours to seconds!

We have that by definition, 1 hour equals 3600 seconds. Then, making a rule of three we have:

1h ------------> 3600s

21h ----------> x

Where "x" represents the number of seconds equivalent to 21 hours.


x = \frac {21 * 3600} {1} = 75600

Thus, 21 hours represent 75600 seconds.

Answer:

75600 seconds.
