Question

32) TRAVEL The swim team is going to finals. If the meet is ih 85 days, determine how many

seconds there are until the meet.

Answer 1

7,344,000 seconds

Explanation:

First lets put up some basic conversions first.

1 day = 24 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

Therefore, from the question:

85 days = 24 ÷ 85 = 2,040 hours

2,040 hours = 2,040 × 60 = 122,400 minutes

122,400 minutes = 122,400 × 60 = 7,344,000 seconds
