Answer:

5.898

Explanation:

There are 365 days in a year.

There are 24 hours in a day.

There are 60 minutes in an hour.

In a day, there are 60 minutes each hour x 24 hours = 1440 minutes

In a year, there are 1440 minutes per day x 365 days = 525600 minutes

3.1 million = 3,100,000

3,100,000 / 525600 = 5.898 (rounded from 5.89802130898)
