Since there are 1440 mins in a day, the equation is 365.25 x 1440.
365.25 x 1440
= 525960
It took Planet Strusenope 525960 minutes to travel one full rotation around the sun

Step 1
first you find out how many minutes in a day so:
24 hours in a day * 60 minutes in an hour = 1,440 minutes in a day

Step 2
Next multiply the minutes in a day with days in a year so:
1440 minutes in a day * 365.25 days in a year = 525,960 minutes in a year

The Answer: 525,960 Minutes in a year
