Answer: 10,080 minutes

Explanation: In this problem, we are asked to convert 1 week into minutes. Unfortunately, we don't have a conversion factor for weeks and minutes but we do have conversion factors we can work with.

Conversion factors

60 minutes = 1 hour

24 hours = 1 day

7 days = 1 week

Now, we can convert 1 week into minutes by using all three of these conversion factors. Also, remember that when we go from a larger unit "weeks" to a smaller unit "minutes" we multiply.

Let's first convert 1 week to days by multiplying 1 by the conversion factor which is 7 to get 7 days.

Next, we convert days to hours by multiplying 7 by the conversion factor which is 24 to get 164 hours.

Finally, we convert hours to minutes by multiplying 168 by the conversion factor which is 60 to get 10,080 minutes.

Therefore, 1 week is equal to 10,080 minutes.
