Final answer:
There are 1,440 minutes in a full day. Two fifths of a day is calculated as (2/5) × 1,440, which equals 576 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many minutes are in two fifths of a day, we need to know the total minutes in a day and then calculate the required fraction of it. There are 24 hours in a day and 60 minutes in an hour, so there are a total of 24 × 60 = 1,440 minutes in one full day. To find two fifths of a day in minutes, we calculate (2/5) × 1,440.
Therefore, two fifths of a day is:
(2/5) × 1,440 = (2 × 1,440) / 5 = 2,880 / 5 = 576 minutes.
So, there are 576 minutes in two fifths of a day.
