Final answer:

To calculate the number of seconds in a 40-hour work week, we need to convert hours to minutes and minutes to seconds. The result is 144,000 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of seconds in a 40-hour work week, we need to convert hours to minutes and minutes to seconds. We know that:

  • 1 hour = 60 minutes
  • 1 minute = 60 seconds

So, we can calculate as follows:

40 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 2400 minutes

2400 minutes x 60 seconds/minute = 144,000 seconds
