We have to do dimensional analysis to solve this problem. I will solve it below. Please let me know if it makes sense:


\begin{gathered} 9200\text{ seconds }*\frac{1\text{ minute}}{60\text{ seconds}}*\frac{1\text{ hour}}{60\text{ minutes}}*\frac{1\text{ day}}{24\text{ hours}}*\frac{1\text{ week}}{7\text{ days}} \\ (9200)/(60*60*24*7) \\ (9200)/(604800) \\ \approx0.0152\text{ weeks} \end{gathered}

0.02 weeks
