there are 60 minutes in 1 hour


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} minutes&hours\\ \cline{1-2} 60&1\\ 2017&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{60}{2017}=\cfrac{1}{x}\implies 60x=2017\implies x =\cfrac{2017}{60} \\\\\\ x = 33(37)/(60)\qquad \leftarrow \textit{33 hours and 37 minutes}

now, 33 - 24 = 9, namely 24 hours plus 9 hours is 33 hours, so 33 hours is a whole day plus 9 hours.

the beginning of January 1st starts off at midnight, so 2017 minutes after midnight will be 33 hours and 37 minutes or 1 day and 9 hours and 37 minutes. Tis was January 2nd at 9:37AM.
